Как первобытные люди выживали среди самых опасных хищников

We're used to thinking of our ancestors as spear-wielding hunters. But for most of history, humans were the prey. Leopards, cave lions, saber-toothed cats, and packs of hyenas. This video is about how a naked, defenseless primate survived among the planet's most dangerous predators and what those nights by the campfire have left us with forever. We'll break down the bones and finds: the Australopithecus skull from Swartkrans with holes from leopard fangs, 800,000 years of controlled fire from Geser Benot Ya'akov, 300,000-year-old spears from Schöningen, Dunbar's number, and why we keep 150 relationships in our heads, how a cave hyena in a pack of twenty hundreds of prey hunted for hours, and why the fear of loneliness still lingers in each of us.
