My name is Simon Khachatryan. I live in Toronto, Canada where I emigrated to from Armenia in 1998. I was always fascinated by geography, science and archaeology. Nearly every evening I would spend hours in front of computer screen and “travel” around the globe using Google Earth. And then, one day, during my observations I grasped one of the most distinguishable features of our planet which gave me the key to unfold many puzzles of our civilization. This inspired the book and I hope you enjoy reading it.
