Finally... an EXCELLENT documentary that doesn't portray pre-history people as a bunch of idiots living in caves and throwing rocks at the moon.

Excellent, very informative documentary!! It's just what science popularisation should be. So much different than vast majority of documentaries that follow "sensations" of doubtful importance and carry little real content. Respect to the authors.

Iron … mind that we are actually using this material as our primary means of constructing tools *to this very day*. Not bad, huh?

@bartfetlinski yeah was kind of missing the normal history channel style of anything not fully explained must be beings from another planet. Although that is entertaining is nice to actually learn some real stuff for a change.
