Exodus
A look at the daily lives of the first Homo sapiens found at cave sites on the southern coast of Africa. Over generations these beach dwellers migrated to Australia, the Far East and finally Europe.
Modern Homo sapiens have more in common with ancient skulls found in Africa than they do with the Neanderthals or other hominids found around the world - our immediate ancestors were all African. What we share in common is more important than what divides us as a species.Bones, tools, shells and red-coloured minerals from archaeological excavations in southern Africa reveal the daily lives of those remote ancestors, and that they headed for the beach. Human populations needed to migrate due to lack of resources and the coast was a route to conquer a continent, then move out of Africa to explore the world.
