Anotace knihy

Long before SpaceX launched rockets, someone in Sumer was yelling, "Who left the ziggurat on fire again?"
Before architects had laser levels, Egyptians were aligning pyramids with the stars using eyeballs and enthusiasm.
And before engineers used code, the ancient ones used guesswork, geometry, and goats-in roughly that order.

The world's first engineers weren't just builders. They were part mathematician, part magician, part unionless labor supervisor.
They invented civilization the hard way-without power tools, without steel, and without a functioning OSHA department.

They gave us bridges that still stand, aqueducts that still flow, and ruins that still look better than modern housing developments.
They carved mountains, redirected rivers, and somehow convinced people to drag multi-ton stones across deserts for "spiritual reasons."
They didn't call themselves engineers, of course. They called themselves priests, scribes, builders, or occasionally, "Please don't blame me if it collapses."
