LOS PRIMEROS POBLADORES de la PENÍNSULA IBÉRICA 🦴 Atapuerca🦴PREHISTORIA DE ESPAÑA

In this documentary, we'll journey through over a million years of history to discover who the first inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula were and how human presence evolved from the earliest hominids to the arrival of the first agricultural societies. We'll travel to Atapuerca, one of the world's most important archaeological sites and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where we'll explore the extraordinary discoveries of Sima del Elefante, Gran Dolina, and Sima de los Huesos. We'll uncover the discovery of Pink, the oldest human face in Western Europe, the emergence of Homo antecessor, the mystery of Miguelón, Benjamina, and the famous Excalibur hand axe—all fundamental pieces for understanding human evolution. We'll analyze how the first hominids lived, their adaptation to the Pleistocene ice ages, human migrations, and the important role of the Iberian Peninsula as a climate refuge during the last Ice Age. We will learn about the history of Neanderthals, their Mousterian tools, their mastery of fire, their care for the sick, their use of personal adornments, and the evidence of symbolic behavior discovered by archaeology. We will also see how Homo sapiens arrived on the Iberian Peninsula, their coexistence with Neanderthals, and the genetic legacy we still preserve today. The documentary dedicates a special section to the extraordinary Paleolithic cave art, featuring the paintings of Altamira, El Castillo, and Tito Bustillo, considered among the greatest masterpieces of world prehistory. Finally, we will learn how the Neolithic Revolution, agriculture, livestock farming, and the emergence of societies like Los Millares and El Argar forever transformed the history of the Iberian Peninsula and paved the way for Protohistory.
