Bag om Ancient Mysteries Described

The book delves into the history of the famous Guildhall in London, England, and explores the mysterious origins of the two large wooden statues of giants that have stood guard at the entrance of the building for centuries. Hone examines the legends and folklore surrounding the giants, and speculates on their possible connection to ancient mythology and pagan beliefs. He also provides a detailed account of the Guildhall's history, from its construction in the 15th century to its use as a center of government and commerce in modern times. The book is a fascinating exploration of the hidden history and mythology of one of London's most iconic landmarks.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Ancient Mysteries Described, by William Hone.
