    Four part series, examines the start of Human civilizations starting several thousands of years ago.

    This page appears to be only for episode one of four, yet my comments are for all four episodes, each running just under one hour.

    This is a high quality PBS production, I was able to watch it on the 2-DVD set from my public library. Not only is the subject fascinating, leading right up to our modern cities and modern civilizations, but one can't help learning a lot about the history of the world.

    Good series.

    Interesting

    I love the theories about war and religion shaping humanity. Very interesting approach to a documentary on human history.

    As long as you insert, "we believe that.." before every assertion, it makes a lot of sense. Scientists often speak with great confidence about these things, as if they were there, until (every few years) we find something that challenges our ideas about civilization and time. Could be a bit more humble about assertions like, "first this, and first that," because really no one has a clue. Gobekli Tepe was discovered recently and until then, scientists were giving early civilizations a much later timeline.

    Can't wait till we find the next one! :)

      For the German version of the documentary mini-series broadcast by Arte, the original order of the episodes was changed: 1. "Wir bauen" (similar to "Cities"), 2. "Wir kämpfen" (similar to "War"), 3. "Wir beten" (similar to "Religion"), 4. "Wir handeln" (similar to "Trade").
