In this episode by the History of the World Podcast we are taken back long before the pyramids and before the thought of "Egyptianness" itself into the heart of the Neolithic in ancient Africa and what would become the Egypt that dominates the hearts of history lovers around the world.

Starting in the Neolithic we explore population movements, archaeological findings and possibly the first "race war" in human history that occurred along the Nile possibly due to contact between lighter and darker peoples.

But more importantly we explore the indigenous peoples living in North Africa, those coming in from the Levant, those moving North from Africa itself and how these worlds "collide" and finally we see the beginning of not just ancient Egypt itself but the origins of the Egyptians, the same Egyptians that would form one of the greatest civilizations on earth.

From culture, pottery, society, religion and conflict Chris from the History of the World Podcast covers it all!

I hope that you all enjoy this as much as I did.
