The Birth of Europe

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Living in a World of Ice
There were no people in Europe a million years ago. So when did they arrive? Why did they bother to come?
Peter France starts this five-part journey through time by looking at the very first Europeans, who were not really
'human' at all, and came into a world of ice totally unlike Europe today.
