The word “relic” means “heritage”—precious monuments of the past, without which there can be no future. Relics are extraordinary sacred objects of the world’s religions: the cross of Jesus Christ and the Ark of the Covenant, the holy Kaaba and the Holy Grail, the statue of the Emerald Buddha and the sword of the prophet Muhammad.
This audiobook describes the relics that are carefully preserved by royal and royal dynasties—about precious gemstones that their owners valued above their own lives… You will also learn about the most important historical treasures: the Pharaoh’s barque of Cheops, the Festus disk, the Aztec Stone of the Sun, the she-wolf of the Capitol, and the Banner of Victory, lowered by the landing apparatus from the very first of space ships—this is an immortal chronicle of civilization.
