Why This Book is Different

This isn't a collection of myth-inspired recipes — it's the real thing.
Every dish in Flavors of Eternity is rooted in historical sources, literary references, and archaeological evidence. Yet it remains beautifully accessible, practical, and even inspirational for everyday cooks, foodies, chefs, and history lovers alike.

Whether you want to cook like a philosopher, impress dinner guests with forgotten delicacies, or just taste what the ancients did — this book is for you.
