What is the origin of the Universe, the solar system, the Earth and the Moon? How does life seem to have started? And how did it come to have such diverse forms? You will discover how mammals and primates first appeared on Earth. Thanks to tools and fire, the first humans came to populate the entire planet. What path did they follow to reach the different continents? When did it happen? We will see how it can be that humans, despite being apparently so different, have a common origin. This visual guide reveals the history of humans on Earth and explain how we are all related.
