The Birth and Unfolding of Phases in History: From Neolithic to World, Pueblo, and U.S. History brings together four major works into a single arc of human time. Michael A. Susko argues that the rhythm of history is not confined to the rise of empires, but begins in the Neolithic with triadic (45-year) generations that set the first phases of historical time in motion. Using this framework, the book explores:
Neolithic Çatalhöyük as an example of the beginning of symbolic and generational phasing. World history through Egypt, Judah-Israel, Rome, and the Medieval-Modern era, contrasting empire-based and prophetic alternatives. Ancestral Pueblo history as a more egalitarian path followed by Indigenous peoples. U.S. history as a largely empire-driven model, tempered by ideals of freedom and equality.This panoramic view balances empire and non-empire trajectories, showing how civilizations universalize their visions either through force or through sharing, covenant, and inclusion. Written in accessible language yet grounded in rigorous patterning, it invites readers to see history not as inevitable trajectory to empire, but as a set of choices that continue to shape our present and future.
