The Geo-Historical Atlas "From Prehistory to Byzantium" includes over 50 maps and diagrams of the most important periods in history: From the advent of agriculture and the ancient civilizations of the Mediterranean to the creation of cities. It continues with the ancient Greek world, classical Athens, the Persian wars, the civil strife of the Peloponnesian war, and the Alexandrian oecumene. It follows the dominance of the Romans and the ascendancy of Constantine the Great in the East, the transformation of the western Roman state into smaller states, and concludes with the empire of New Rome up to the fall of Constantinople (1453). The text accompanying the maps not only provides a historical overview but also offers an interpretation of historical developments from the perspective of migrations and the need for nomadic peoples to settle in communities and further organize city networks. Timelines of the eras and visual material enrich the edition, which aims to enhance and supplement the teaching of historical lessons.
