Human Evolution in Britain & Europe by Chris Stringer
Six members of the Society attended this talk given at the Reardon Smith Lecture Theatre at the National Museum of Wales last Wednesday. Chris Stringer is head of a research group at the Natural History Museum, London and his talk co-ensides with an exhibition at the museum entitled 'Origins'. I'm sure everyone who attended would agree that it was an excellant talk given in a very relaxed way, illustrated with excerpts from his new book. We where then given a chance to view the exhibition in the main hall of the museum. I think a visit to this exhibition will be very worth while. Our February speaker, Elizabeth Walker, is head of the team that set up the exhibition.
