Clans At War: A Paleolithic Adventure (Adventures In The Paleolithic)

130,000 B.C., the Ice Age comes to an end and the RISS-WÜRM interglacial period begins. Slowly, temperatures rise and the ice retreats in the northern hemisphere, abundant rains favor the formation of vast forest extensions throughout Europe and North America. A different Humanity emerges from the snows, the Neanderthal Man, perfectly adapted to the new environmental conditions, proliferates and colonizes the old continent. Also in Africa, the effects of climate change implacably affected human populations.The period of abundant rainfall that for 30,000 years turned Egypt and the Sahara into a paradise of lush vegetation, with abundant rivers, lakes and swamps, was now culminating. The rains had led to the first great emigration of Homo sapiens to North Africa and the Near East across the Sinai. With the end of the rains, of the four great rivers that crossed the region of the Sahara, hardly one survived, fed by the snows of the distant mountains to the south: the Nile, was being born the great desert that one day would be known as Sahara, the great herds of herbivores and the human population moved towards the last great river. In the Near East, Homo sapiens had met for the first time with his cousin, the Neanderthal, with whom he apparently lived peacefully for millennia, as revealed by some fossils that present intermediate characteristics between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. In spite of the differences, the abundance of resources avoided the dispute between the human groups, who no longer needed to emigrate behind the herds.When the arid period began the living conditions of Homo sapiens and Neanderthals became difficult, a greater competition for hunting and gathering was established, and it did not take long for the first dispute for survival to take place. Numerous Neanderthals moved to southern Arabia, while Homo sapiens clans migrated east to India and Asia. However, some groups decided to cling to the land where they were born, perhaps hoping for better days. But there were no better days... rains became scarcer and scarcer, water sources were reduced to almost disappear, vegetation no longer provided food for large herds, deserts grew in size, herbivores are scarce, large herds no longer exist, and disputes between human groups become violent, desperate.Then, unexpectedly, new human groups emerge from the heart of Africa, bursting onto the historical scene.
