Description
Last in the series exploring evolution and the origins of human life. For 200,000 years the Neanderthals lived unchallenged in Europe. But 30,000 years ago climate change and the arrival of modern humans from the east forced them to adapt or die. A skeleton of a boy found in Portugal may tell the tale of when Neanderthals and modern humans met - the Lagar Velho Boy appears to be the offspring of a Neanderthal and our own species. The sudden disappearance...
Description
At the Prehistoric Autopsy HQ in Glasgow, anatomist professor Alice Roberts and biologist Dr George McGavin go on an extraordinary evolutionary journey to meet three of our ancient ancestors. They travel the globe to gather evidence from leading scientists and work with model makers to reconstruct our predecessors-revealing how they lived and comparing them genetically to modern humans. Episode 1 covers the latest research on Neanderthals, and brings...

Description
Over 60,000 years ago, the first modern humans left their African homeland and entered Europe, where Neanderthals had been living for hundreds of thousands of years. In 2010, a team led by geneticist Svante Paabo reconstructed much of the Neanderthal genome, discovering that they had interbred with humans, leaving a small but consistent signature of Neanderthal genes behind in everyone outside Africa today. In this program, NOVA explores a range of...
