10,000 B.C. was a time of cataclysmic change on Earth. Extreme climactic
fluctuations hurled the planet into a minor ice age; megafauna like the
saber-toothed tiger and woolly mammoth were suddenly becoming extinct;
and early humans began to inhabit North America. Cold and hungry, their
fragile communities undertook perilous hunting expeditions. The
slaughter of a single mammoth, weighing nearly ten tons, could be the
difference between survival and death.
JOURNEY TO 10,000 B.C.
brings this unique and thrilling period to life, and investigates the
geologic and climate changes that scientists are just beginning to
understand. In a major forensic investigation, HISTORY visits early
human archaeological sites to uncover fossilized bones, ancient
dwellings, and stone weapons, and uses state-of-the-art CGI to recreate
the treacherous mammoth hunts and the devastating impact of a comet
colliding with Earth.
