This a piece of news is about first human that arrived to England in Pleistocene period. Homo antecessor is ancient human who live in England to eigth hundred fifty thousand years ago. In Norlfok, land was covered with confeorous forest, where lived mammoths, horse and giant elk.
Happisburgh is really an exceptional site becouse it has a several fossils of plants, human and animals of Pleistocene.
Pleistocene was a frozen period whit a climate coled. Homo antecesor had a several troubles like carnivore animals and cold climage to live in these places.
Homo antecessor had that live with huge animal, like Sabre-toothed cats, who was a big carnivore and it hunted to human populations. Another "hunter animal" is an hyena the size of a lion.
Archaeologists explain how flint tools found on the Norfolk coast reveal how the first humans in Britain lived. Several tools like blunt, stone tools, etc. To see this, there is an article in Nature journal where scientist publish their result of this study.
Its very importan study of paleontology and anthropology to understand how did human live in Europe when they go out from Africa y how did they built a new life in this "new world". I think that it is importan knows about our origin and it is for this taht I chose this article.
