Ten programmes about prehistoric man's first steps in technology.
How did man first start growing crops? What tools did he use? What were his fields like? What effect did it have on the landscape? These questions are discussed and illustrated by Nicholas Thomas, Assistant Keeper, Department of Archaeology, Birmingham City Museum; G. W. Dimbleby, Professor of Human Environment, Institute of Archaeology, University of London; Peter Wood, Lecturer in Geography, University of Reading.
