These books provide detailed insights into various ancient civilizations, allowing him to delve deeper into his favorite topic.

2. Archaeological dig kit: Stimulate his curiosity and imagination by giving him an archaeological dig kit. These kits typically include tools and materials for excavating replica artifacts, and can provide a hands-on experience of unearthing ancient treasures. It's a fun and educational activity that can spark his interest in archaeology.

3. Museum membership or tickets: Opt for a gift that allows him to explore ancient history up close.

These games offer strategic gameplay while incorporating historical themes, providing an enjoyable way for him to learn about different ancient civilizations and their notable achievements.

5. Virtual reality headset: Take his learning experience to the next level with a virtual reality (VR) headset. There are several VR apps and programs that allow users to explore ancient historical sites virtually, providing a realistic and immersive experience. This gift not only aligns with his interest in ancient history but also introduces him to cutting-edge technology.

6. Ancient historical documentaries or movies: Expand his knowledge and deepen his understanding of ancient civilizations by gifting him a collection of documentaries or movies focused on this topic.
