About Me

My photo
Alice C. Linsley
My book "The First Lords of the Earth: An Anthropological Study" is available on Amazon. The book identifies the social structure and religious beliefs of the early Hebrew ruler-priest caste (6000-4000 years ago), their dispersion out of Africa, their territorial expansion, trade routes, and influence on the populations of the Fertile Crescent and Ancient Near East.
