In this learning playlist, you’ll learn the fundamentals about what we know, and what we’re still discovering, about the evolution of Homo sapiens.
Curated by: PBS Eons (32 videos)
These relatives of ours lived in Eurasia for more than 300,000 years. They were expert toolmakers, using materials like stone, wood, and animal bone. They were also skilled hunters and foragers, and may even have created cave art. So what caused the decline and disappearance of their population? Well, in a way...it could’ve been us. But maybe not in the way you might’ve heard. ***** PBS Member Stations rely on viewers like you.
