Prehistoric Man: Human Evolution Lower Paleolithic

Product Description

Experts now agree that Africa was the birthplace of humankind. Many of the oldest fossils have been discovered in Africa. Climatic changes and the Ice Age, which began close to three million years ago, gave rise to the spread of our ancient ancestors to neighboring regions, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and even Australia. In Part 2 of Prehistoric Man, viewers are introduced to the first of our kind, humans in the genus Homo, and learn where they lived and how they survived and adapted. We meet the ancient species that pre-date modern humans, including an ancient people in Spain, dating back hundreds of thousands of years, who could have been the first Europeans.
