Summary

Did you know the ancient Canaanites invented the alphabet? 

The Bible references Canaan several times. For example, God commanded the Israelites to destroy the Canaanites following the Israeli flight from Egypt. 

However, the actual history of this civilization doesn’t quite match theological sources. For one thing, the Canaanite civilization consisted of a multitude of different peoples from the same ethnic group but different cultures. 

The region also had frequently redefined borders, and very few written records remain of Canaan, making it difficult for scholars to research. It can therefore be hard for people to find an easily understood and cohesive resource on this fascinating civilization. 

But that is about to change. In this new captivating history audiobook, you will discover the truth about the ancient Canaanites. 

The Ancient Canaanites: A Captivating Guide to the Canaanite Civilization That Dominated the Land of Canaan Before the Ancient Israelites includes: 

  • Revolutionary findings provided by modern archaeological detective techniques
  • A simple explanation of what Caanan is and where it's located
  • Fascinating discoveries of Canaanites artifacts
  • Remarkable insights into their government and social structure
  • Startling theories about the Bronze Age collapse
  • What there is to know about the culture of the Canaanites
  • The main conflict with Canaan that occurs early in the Bible and more shocking mentions in the Bible
  • Religion and beliefs
  • And much, much more!

Nice book

The book makes it clear that the true history and origins of the Israelite people and their religion are still open for debate.

Truthful, helpful

I liked it

I liked about this book is the proof given about the ancient black Canaanites. Not the lies taught by the elites who know that civilization began with Africa!
