For the majority of the population, the term immediately transports us to the notion of an ancient age or ancient world (the Parthenon, Athens, and the Coliseum of Rome), which condenses in itself the Greco-Roman world. This reduces antiquity to antiquity that was structurally essential for the construction and emergence of the civilization called occidental.For others, because of their religious backgrounds, antiquity goes back in time and enlarges, in part, its space of action, allowing the emergence of Palestine as a primordial territory.But these two visions (old and supported by a scientific ignorance of the ancient geographies and chronologies) enclose the history in a limited time and space. As if there would never have been a world before that time. As if the civilization that we comfortably call ourselves as inheritors, the so-called "Occidental Civilization" was the first step in the history of man on earth. 517 $aAntiquity and Its Reception 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 676 $a909 700 $aTrindade Lopes$b Maria Helena$01368766 702 $aAlmeida$b Isabel 702 $aDe Fa?tima Rosa$b Maria 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688424703321 996 $aAntiquity and Its Reception$93394731 997 $aUNINA
