Fresh Light from the Ancient Monuments by A. H. Sayce

Description

Fresh Light from the Ancient Monuments is a book by A. H. Sayce, first published in 1884. It presents the findings of 19th-century archaeology and their relevance to biblical history, with a particular focus on the decipherment of cuneiform and hieroglyphic inscriptions from Mesopotamia and Egypt. Sayce discusses how recent discoveries from sites like Nineveh, Babylon, and Thebes confirm, clarify, or expand upon various biblical accounts, offering readers a bridge between ancient texts and modern scholarship. Written for a general audience, the book played a significant role in making the emerging field of Assyriology accessible to the public and encouraged interest in the historical underpinnings of scripture.
