Bibby's account of his rediscovery of Dilmun, an ancient Arabian civilization on the Persian Gulf, which was as rich and influential as its contemporaries, Sumer and the Indus Valley Civilization, with which it actively dealt. He also explores the South Arabia of 5,000 years ago and speculates that the pre-Dilmun Ubiad people may actually have created the seminal Western civilization. A very readable - as well as scholarly and revolutionary - book.
