An extraordinary exploration of the ancestry of Britain through seven burial sites. By using new advances in genetics and taking us through important archaeological discoveries, Professor Alice Roberts helps us better understand life today. ‘This is a terrific, timely and transporting book - taking us heart, body and mind beyond history, to the fascinating truth of the prehistoric past and the present’ Bettany Hughes We often think of Britain springing from nowhere with the arrival of the Romans. But in Ancestors, pre-eminent archaeologist, broadcaster and academic Professor Alice Roberts explores what we can learn about the very earliest Britons, from burial sites and by using new technology to analyse ancient DNA. Told through seven fascinating burial sites, this groundbreaking prehistory of Britain teaches us more about ourselves and our history: how people came and went and how we came to be on this island. It explores forgotten journeys and memories of migrations long ago, written into genes and preserved in the ground for thousands of years. This is a book about belonging: about walking in ancient places, in the footsteps of the ancestors. It explores our interconnected global ancestry, and the human experience that binds us all together. It’s about reaching back in time, to find ourselves, and our place in the world.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Exciting and provocative . . . A tour de force of a book that begs to be seen as well as to be read.”—The Washington Post Book World World renowned scientist Carl Sagan and acclaimed author Ann Druyan have written a Roots for the human species, a lucid and riveting account of how humans got to be the way we are. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a thrilling saga that starts with the origin of the Earth. It shows with humor and drama that many of our key traits—self-awareness, technology, family ties, submission to authority, hatred for those a little different from ourselves, reason, and ethics—are rooted in the deep past, and illuminated by our kinship with other animals. Sagan and Druyan conduct a breathtaking journey through space and time, zeroing in on critical turning points in evolutionary history, and tracing the origins of sex, altruism, violence, rape, and dominance. Their book culminates in a stunningly original examination of the connection between primate and human traits. Astonishing in its scope, brilliant in its insights, and an absolutely compelling read, Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a triumph of popular science.

A compelling and controversial nonfiction in the tradition of Graham Hancock, Fingerprints of the Gods, Magicians of the Gods and Forbidden Archaeology. The Myth of Man challenges modern perceptions of the origins of mankind and the rise of civilization - bringing Atlantis, giants, Bigfoot, and the worldwide flood myths back to life. History is wrong. Much of what is known about humankind and our mysterious past originates from a lot of unsubstantiated guesswork and scientific dogma which has corralled the general populace into accepting outdated notions of human origins and the rise of civilization. The Myth Of Man reveals suppressed information and hidden history which contradicts these current paradigms of thought regarding the origins and development of Man. Forbidden archaeology challenges Darwin's evolutionary model and reinforces the possibility that our species originated much further back in antiquity than is considered acceptable by the present day scientific establishment. Could some of the world's most enduring myths such as giants, Bigfoot, Atlantis and the Great Flood actually be grounded in reality contrary to modern thinking? And how do these myths fit into the larger context of human progress and evolution? What could the presence of anomalous artefacts around the world tell us about the technological capabilities of our advanced and ancient ancestors? Maybe it is time for a total reappraisal of ancient history in order to fill the blank pages of prehistory and rewrite the amazing story of humankind.
