Most people are well aware of the “A-list” ancient empires and civilizations – Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Cartheginian, etc – but there were many others that have not had equal air play. And many of these older civilizations had highly advanced societies and capabilities in technology, science and engineering. This list presents ten of the lesser known ancient civilizations that probably make it into most history books.
Dutch-born trance DJ & producer, Tijs Verwest began as a DJ at various school parties and later as a resident DJ at several clubs in the Netherlands. He started producing hardcore and gabber music in the mid 1990s.

With a strong presence in the realm of African football thanks to various sponsorships amongst both teams and players, Puma recently released the Journey of Football video in a ramp up to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
