How did humans survive the Ice Age with no heating, no houses and no warm clothes from a shop? Our species evolved in Africa, has no thick fur and cools down by sweating. On paper, a frozen Ice Age winter should have killed us. This is how our ancestors beat the five problems that could kill you in a single night: freezing air, no shelter, hunger, your own sweat, and the endless dark. You'll see how lice DNA reveals when people started wearing clothes, the thousands of ivory beads sewn onto clothes at Sungir, a giant ring made from more than 60 mammoths at Kostenki, the real mammoth-bone shelters of Mezhyrich, why lean meat alone can make you ill ("rabbit starvation"), how hot stones can boil fat out of bones without a pot, why sweat is so dangerous in the cold, and the stone lamps that lit the cave paintings of Lascaux.
