Discovering the Americas

Season 1 Episode 4 of 5

Ella Al-Shamahi looks at Homo sapiens' arrival in the Americas during the height of the Ice Age, one of the coldest times humanity has ever known. She traces fossilised footprints, possibly of a mother and her child, who were among the first to set foot in North America, and learns how humanity's ancestors pioneered new ways to control nature as farming emerged to shape the world

Human airs on BBC Two Wales at 9:00 PM, Monday 4 August. (Subtitles, new, audio description.)
