Epic in scale, this presentation visits the world’s oldest buildings to unwrap a fascinating story of ancient human development that is still resonating today. It’s a monumental story of broad scientific range from Anthropology to Neuroscience, animated by common sense, moral vision, and faith in the power of human ingenuity. Timelines and illustrations provide unprecedented perspective that helps make sense of European human history and prehistory, including the origins of architecture, farming, property, cities, and western civilization itself. Introducing pioneering research, it shows how archaeology becomes far more interesting once we go beyond describing the ruins and artifacts that remain and perceive with all our senses. "Megaliths, Music and the Mind" can fundamentally transform our understanding of the human past and offers a path toward a recovery of lost values, new ways of confronting problems of today, and preparation for a society of the future.
