Episode 8: Eating and Social Networking in the Upper Palaeolithic

Pre History - the archaeology of the ancient Near East

This week we continue our look at the Upper Palaeolithic of the Near East with a look at what people were eating, and how they were eating it. Life is not just about food though, even for Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers. So, we will also look at how Upper Palaeolithic people dressed and decorated themselves, visited with other people and swapped goods and ideas in their extensive social networks.
