Becoming Human

Are you a bookmarker like me? When I come across some interesting web sites that I don’t have time to read in depth at that moment, I’ll save it into a temp folder. The list gets rather long, so now and then I go through a few of them. Some get saved into properly named folders, some discarded, and some are great to share, like this one – Becoming Human: Paleoanthropology, Evolution and Human Origins. It’s a very well done interactive flash documentary that tells the story of our origins. There is even a section on Culture about our ancestors’ great creativity, their rock paintings, engravings and sculpture.

So get a cup of tea, a comfortable chair, turn up the volume and enjoy! (or bookmark it for future reading, like me!) And sorry, I don’t remember where I found it but thanks to whomever shared it, perhaps another bookmarker.
