Description

An extraordinary exploration of the ancestry of Britain through seven burial sites, Professor Alice Roberts delves into the fascinating truth of the prehistoric past and its connection to our present-day lives. By using new advances in genetics and archaeological discoveries, she sheds light on the lives of the earliest Britons and how they came to inhabit the island.

This groundbreaking book takes us on a journey through seven remarkable burial sites, uncovering the stories of people who lived and died thousands of years ago. Through their remains, we can learn about the journeys and migrations that shaped the history of Britain, and how our own ancestry is intertwined with that of the ancient world.

Part of a broader exploration of human connection and belonging, Ancestors invites us to walk in the footsteps of our ancestors and reflect on our place in the world. A thought-provoking and engaging read, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in archaeology, history, and the human experience.
