Summary:
The Old World has confronted archaeologists with many riddles, perhaps the most tantalizing of which is the Dark Age, an economic and cultural recession so devastating that it is supposed to have lasted for 400 years, from 1200 to 800 BC. In Centuries of Darkness, a group of archaeologists presents a controversial challenge to this claim.
