HUMAN coming soon...

Following breakthroughs in DNA technology and remarkable new fossil evidence, the NOVA co-produced series Human (5x60’) tells the story of how humanity went from being just one of many hominin species to a dominant form of life on Earth. Presented by paleoanthropologist Ella Al-Shamahi, this series uses a combination of archaeology, travelogue and reconstruction to tell the story of how we became ‘us’: modern humans. Ella will follow in the footsteps of our ancient ancestors – visiting internationally important archaeological sites to meet experts who can help her unlock the secrets of our deep historical past.
