Stone Age Hunter Gatherers

Slow connection? Watch in lower quality

Here historical expert Martin Patterson shares his vast knowledge of the Stone Age Hunter Gatherer period. His passion and skill is obvious as he shows us a range of replica tools and equipment he has fashioned from natural materials including a flint-headed axe, a scythe from deer antler, a fire-hardened digging stick and a range of spears for hunting - explaining how these would have been used and maintained in the Stone Age. Martin shows us needles from bone; how pine resin, soot and bees wax can make a sort of glue and how stinging nettle fibre would have been used like string to make trapping nets. He stresses the importance of looking after the natural environment - then and now - to encourage new growth and to ensure a regular harvest. http://www.handsonhistory.co.uk/.

Humanity started in Africa. All ethnicities of human are related when you go back far enough. Indo Europeans migrated to Europe from what is now East Europe/West Asia, but the ancestors of the Indo Europeans came from Africa first.

Highly informative. Our next challenge will be to experiment these living conditions roaming radioactive wastelands…
