Over Britain's tens of thousands of years of civilization, its history has played host to a series of strange and mysterious rituals, events, and cultures.

By examining their mystic places and practices, they hope to unlock the secrets of their ancestors and better understand the worlds in which they lived.

Part 8 Ice Age Shaman

Yorkshire, England is a County known for its pudding, cricket, and–so it seems–Mesolithic shamans. Clive Anderson and anthropologist Mary-Ann Ochota examine a treasure trove of ancient wonders found at an archaeological site in Star Carr, including headdresses, tools, and weapons made from deer skulls, bones, and antlers. They also find evidence of the oldest houses ever built in Britain, proving that our 11,000-year-old Ice Age ancestors were a lot more sophisticated than previously believed. They attempt to commune with the old gods as they investigate Britain's Ice Age shamans.
