Specialist Notes
First edition of this important discussion on the socio-cultural nature of ancient post-Flood civilizations. Goguet (Paris 1716-1758), scholar and advisor to the Parliament of Paris, did not neglect to investigate the state of the technology of the illustrated companies, for example taking an interest in the methods of construction of the Egyptian pyramids. A real treatise on comparative ethnography.
