| Summary | "The History of Antiquity, Vol. 4 (of 6)" by Max Duncker is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into early civilizations and cultures, focusing specifically on the Arian peoples along the Indus and Ganges Rivers. Max Duncker aims to explore their sociology, religion, and interactions with neighboring societies. At the start of the volume, the author provides a sweeping overview of this ancient civilization, detailing the geographical and cultural landscape of India, notably the significance of the Himalayas and the rivers that nourished early societies. Duncker discusses the immigration of the Aryas into the region, highlighting the contrasts between them and the indigenous populations. The narrative sets the stage for a deep analysis of the social structure, religious beliefs, and historical developments that characterize the lives of these early inhabitants, based on evidence from hymns and linguistic studies.
