Description

We seem to know almost nothing about our ancestors: we have no written evidence of their experiences, and can only guess at their lifestyles and beliefs from rare finds, burials and settlements. Is that enough?
It turns out—yes. Stones and skulls can tell you a lot: how families were formed, children raised, hunters hunted, new lands discovered, animals tamed—even how ancient people treated toothache. We usually think the Stone Age is remote and that we are nothing like those people, but that is unfair: life in the Palaeolithic was far more human than we imagine.
Fifty illustrated stories of ancient life show that our ancestors were not merely humans, but real individuals with minds of their own.
