Understanding Prehistory & Geography

Prehistory is the term use to designate all time prior to recorded history.  For the purposes of this course, our focus will center around the subset time periods referred to as the Paleolithic and Neolithic Eras.

Additionally, much of our discussion will focus on geography and its impact on the development of World History.
