Civilizations 1: A Game of Cows (Earthlings 101, Episode 16)
Channel: Zogg from Betelgeuse
Date: 2022-10-31

This is part one of two episodes about the rise of Earthling civilisations.
This episode is about prehistory, from the rise of the species Homo Sapiens to the first cities.

Where do Earthlings come from? How did they spread over the planet? Were the first Europeans white? Who were the Neanderthals? What happened to the large animals in Australia and America (the continent)? Where and why was agriculture developed? Who built the first cities? And was the Agricultural Revolution a trap?
