Finding Time for the Old Stone Age

Auteur: O'Connor, Anne (Former Research Fellow, Department of Archaeology, Durham University)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
In the mid 19th century, curious stone implements were found beside the bones of extinct animals. Humans were evidently more ancient than had been supposed - but just how old were they? A colourful cast of characters - from professors to wine sellers - debated the question and even came to blows over it. Anne O'Connor tells their fascinating story.
