“Nobody brings ancient history and archaeology to life like Adrienne Mayor. From the Russian steppes to China, and from Roman Egypt and Arabia to the Etruscans, she leads the reader on a breathtaking quest for the real ancient warrior women reflected in myths--their daring, archery, tattoos, fine horses, and independence from male control. The book's rich erudition, communicated in sparkling prose and beautiful illustrations, makes it a riveting read.” BookRealBeautifulRichFineReaderHorseIndependenceMalesAncientChinaMythWarriorProseDaringQuestsTattooEgyptMayorsArabiaIllustrationSparklingArchaeologyBreathtakingArcheryAncient HistoryErudition Author:Edith Hall
