{"product_id":"marquez-sofia-when-the-sky-fell-9789374120071","title":"When the Sky Fell","description":"For centuries, stories of floods, fire from the heavens, and endless winters were dismissed as fantasy or superstition. Yet what if these ancient myths explained real events-geological upheavals, volcanic eruptions, and cosmic encounters that shaped entire civilisations? This book journeys into the hidden science behind the tales that humanity has carried across millennia.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThrough gripping accounts of great flood legends, fiery mountains worshipped as gods, and the terror of comet myths origins, it reveals how cultures preserved memories of natural disasters in symbolic language. From the shaking earth to the tsunamis in legend that swallowed cities, every chapter pairs myth with evidence from geology, astronomy, and archaeology. The result is a riveting exploration of how story became humanity's first record of science.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis book is for readers who are fascinated by both the poetry of myth and the rigour of science, for those who suspect that even the most fantastical legends may carry grains of truth. It invites you to reconsider myths not as relics of ignorance but as cultural seismographs-maps of memory that still speak to our own age of climate shocks and ecological risk.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBy the end, you will see that to study myth is to study the human encounter with Earth itself-violent, wondrous, and profoundly revealing.","brand":"Mindful Pages","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53822751179094,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/marquez-sofia-when-the-sky-fell-9789374120071","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
