Dublin - Trinity College Dublin, College Green
Professor Clive Gamble, FBA, FSA

(Very, very early human history by the way)

When and why did we become the only human species to populate the globe? This
lecture will reveal how the reappraisal of archaeological evidence in the last decade
has dramatically changed the picture of human evolution and show how such essentially
human traits as language, art and music first appeared.

Professor of Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London, Clive Gamble is a
leading authority on the archaeology of the earliest human societies and a frequent
contributor to national radio. He presented the six-part programme 'Where do we come
from?' on Channel 5. His archaeological career has taken him all over the world, and
won him many awards as well as international recognition.

Tickets (£5) online at: http://www.sal.org.uk/newsandevents/publiclectures/ - there are
other lectures in the future, in different places, that may also be of interest.

I bet this will be fascinating, are you going to go? I did my dissertation on the speciation which lead to our evolution and how that explains a lot of disease states today.

I just got a book by Richard Leakey from a charity shop today :)
I would have gone to the lecture if I was (a lot) nearer.

That sounds interesting
