What Happened Before History?

It’s the story of humans, from the time our distant ancestors dropped from the trees and started walking up right to the relatively brief period we call recorded history. We had a lot to do to get where we are, like learning to deal with tools and fire, but most of all, each other. There were many important systems to develop, like cooperation, communication, education, organization, and civilization.  This brief overview of humanity from Kurzgesagt covers a lot of ground quickly, in bright, colorful animation. We’ve come a long way. (via Digg)
