Agree, has that ever happened?  What, really, is the relationship of all these people from long-gone eras, who didn't even have... plumbing, to us — people who easily handle high-tech gadgets since kindergarten?  But remember how it happens: you flip through an old family album and suddenly stop in amazement, encountering a faded photograph of a person whose facial features are exactly like those of his distant descendant. As if that is him, just dressed "in vintage." At that moment, you suddenly realize: the past is always here, it lives in us, we are its heirs. The past reliably keeps its secrets and, as we all know, reveals them to far from everyone who claims that history has no secrets from him. The famous writer Kir Bulychev — a man who believed in the future, the creator of captivating books about Alice Selezneva — was a magnificent connoisseur of the past. Because behind this pseudonym hid none other than Igor Vsevolodovich Możejko — a true great scientist and orientalist who devoted his entire life to the professional study of history. You are about to embark on an astonishing journey through the Ancient World and the world of the ancient era accompanied by a completely unique guide — the master of words Kir Bulychev and scientist I. V. Możejko in one person.
