Ancient History

[close] A group for those who enjoy reading about hilariously awful, tragically undertaught historical events and ideas. If your friends and family don't want to hear any more talk about corpse medicine, radioactive cosmetics, or the plights of executioners, then you'll find a ready ear right here. Both fiction and non-fiction are welcome; primary sources as well as academic studies. If it's interestingly awful, you're in the right place. We do prefer to focus on relatively unknown aspects of the past (for example, medicinal cannibalism in 17th century Europe) rather than well-known topics. That said, even the most familiar historical stories have some interesting nooks and crannies.

[close] A journey of books descending into the culture and history of Ancient Egypt. Books covering Egypt's culture, art, history, traditions, literature, music, architecture, archaeology, geography, religion, mythology and many other diverse aspects will be explored. Ideally the group selects the suggested monographs.

[close] This group is intended to bring together true Indians who are in quest for true history of our great Motherland and her people since ages. As well known, truth can’t remain hidden forever. One day it reveals himself, which needs analytical, critical and unbiased eyes to recognise and acknowledge.

[close] A group for people interested in seriously researching and learning about the history of Christianity as a religion and a social movement. Not a religious or theological venue, but a place to share resources, insights and ideas about Christianity as an object of historical and social study
