Roberts Alice Ancestors. A prehistory of Britain in seven burials
An extraordinary exploration of the ancestry of Britain through seven burial sites. By using new advances in genetics and taking us through important archaeological discoveries, Professor Alice Roberts helps us better understand life today. We often think of Britain springing from nowhere with the arrival of the Romans.

It explores our interconnected global ancestry, and the human experience that binds us all together. It’s about reaching back in time, to find ourselves, and our place in the world.
