Transcript

Living in caves scattered across Europe, a group of people left behind tools, art, and a few bones. Who were they? And when, how—did they live?

The global flood of Noah’s day was followed by an ice age. It covered much of Europe with ice and snow. Noah’s descendants who lived in that region made the best of it, taking shelter in caves and hunting to survive.

These people aren’t that mysterious—they’re people, like us, living in the harsh world after the flood.
