Tartessos

"This edition of Tartessos by Adolf Schulten (1870-1960) reproduces the Spanish edition of 1924 - published by the prestigious Revista de Occidente by Jose Ortega y Gasset - whose translation (of the first German version published in Hamburg in 1922) was in charge of the very renowned Manuel García Morente. The book reconstructs the history of the city of Tartessos, in the words of its author, very similar to that of Troy and "... the key to the oldest culture in the West". The substantial argument dates back to the early 20th century when Schulten worked in the Roman fields of Numantia and the manuscript itself was written around the time of World War I."
