Chronos History Network looks at the past through a journalistic lens. We don't tell History as a list of dates, but as a succession of decisions, conflicts, and transformations that shaped the world. With correspondents in Uruk, the Nile Valley, and the Indus Valley, we bring you the latest from the ancient world as if it were happening today.
Beyond the century-by-century episodes, in Specials we take time to explore the great characters and events that shaped Ancient History.
Beyond the episodes, in Chronicles we explore History with a personal eye. Each article takes a fragment of the past — an object, a decision, a character — and examines it carefully, connecting it to our present. If the episodes are the evening news of the ancient world, the chronicles are the opinion columns.
Uruk's colonies were driven out one by one. Yet in southern Mesopotamia, the cities didn't disappear. They reinvented themselves.
The Nile Valley was burning. Not from the sun, but from war. For decades, the warlords of Upper Egypt had been tearing each other apart.
Every week, new articles. Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Indus Valley, Europe… ancient History as you've never been told.
The first chronicles of the 3rd millennium are on their way. Stay tuned.
