New Stone Age (animation)

Life in Neolithic Britain through the eyes of one family as they attempt to hunt and farm enough food to live on. Around 6,500 years ago a change took place in the way people lived – hunter-gatherers settled in one place and kept animals and grew crops, although they still hunted wild animals when the chance presented itself. They adopted new ways of burying their dead, building longbarrows on hilltops as a final resting place for bones. Technology is beginning to change peoples’ lives.
