How Did Ancient Humans Survive the Ice Age?

The cold wakes you before anything else does. For over 100,000 years, that wasn't a bad night — it was Tuesday. In this video, you'll step inside the Ice Age, the brutal cold cycles that gripped the planet from roughly 115,000 to 11,700 years ago, and discover how your ancestors made it through without central heating, modern medicine, or a single warm blanket. You'll see how the invention of tailored clothing and the humble bone needle changed everything, why the beadwork found at the Sungir burial site in Russia tells a story about survival technology, and how a mammoth-bone shelter at Dolní Věstonice reveals just how much cooperation the cold demanded. You'll also learn the counterintuitive twist about what really threatened Ice Age humans — and why it still shapes your instincts today.
