Ice Age Questions
How did they live during the Ice Age?
During the Ice Age, people sought to settle south because of the low temperatures. Initially they fought each other to define their space or to develop a new way of life. So people, now adapted to low temperatures and permanently settled, started hunting animals (Mammoths and other animals) mainly for food but also for warmth. Animal husbandry and agriculture developed. The population increased dramatically, and humanity was steadily on the road to civilization, a stage which, according to various theories, also defined the beginning of evolved humanity.
Civilisation Dawns
The Culture
People were no longer just hunters, but also artists, creating designs in large caves, making statues, baskets and elaborately decorated clothing. They conducted rituals, played music with bone flutes, and created many kinds of blades as their weapons.
It was a time of recovery, after the very difficult Ice Age.

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
