It left no written records on stone, clay or papyrus and whether or not its blood still courses in the veins of any existing native tribe or tribes no man knows. It is believed, through a study of the tree rings of ancient timbers taken from the ruins, that the inhabitants of Chaco settled there at least 1,000 years ago and have been gone for about 700 years. The tree rings and meagre skeletal remains indicate the tribe departed in a body and due to a mounting continuance of devastating drouth rather than on account of the ravages of some contagious disease or the onslaughts of an armed foe... more...

Kerr, Philip. 1996. Esau. New York. Henry Holt (1997). ISBN: 0671019929. Abominable snowmen, downed satellites, Pakistan and India on the threshold of war--Philip Kerr packs his latest novel with one thrill after another. It begins at the top, or at least very near it. Just as Jack Furness makes it within striking distance of a forbidden Himalayan mountain summit, all hell breaks loose. An enormous avalanche kills his partner (not to mention his Sherpa party further down the mountain) and traps Jack in a cave. There he finds the skull that become the focal point of Esau. Once down from the mountain, Jack takes the skull to Dr. Stella Swift, his former lover and a paleontologist. She recognizes in it a "missing link," an alternative line of hominid development: the Yeti. This discovery inspires another expedition up the killer mountain, but this time the danger doesn't come from nature alone: the U.S. military has planted among the climbers an agent whose mission is to recover a downed satellite ... at any cost.

McFarland & Company Inc., Publishers. ISBN: 0-7864-2215-7.* Early film depictions of prehistoric humans were not constrained by science; instead they most often made "cavemen" the stuff of comedy. Prehistoric humans also populated adventure-fantasy films, with the original One Million B.C. (1940) leading the charge. Not until the 1970s did accurate film accounts of prehistoric humans emerge. This exhaustive work provides detailed accounts of more than 580 film and television productions depicting human prehistory. Included are dramas and comedies set in human prehistory; documentaries; and films and television shows in which prehistoric people somehow exist in historical periods or in extraterrestrial settings. Each entry includes full filmographic data, and critical commentary is included for many of the works.

(Balland, 1977; Paris: J'ai lu (967), 1979, 211 pp. illus. by Jean Gourmelin; Bourgois Christian, 1997) ´ Claude Klotz's style is at once that of the comic strip (he adores onomatopoeia) and the epic poem, which Victor Hugo called History listening at the doors of legend. The very size of his topic, millions-of-years history, serves the author's purpose; it permits us to dream between the centuries and the lines, and it lets the imagination run free. Better still, he is instructive, giving the flavor of knowing well, from more scientific, but less amusing works, who were indeed the inhabitants of the late Pleistocene, 500 centuries before our era, about the time when the action of The Unnambables ends. Claude Klotz's novel should attract a large audience, for it unites three qualities fundamental to a good novel: imagination, humor and intelligence.

The compiler explains that Lacaze-Duthiers, anxious to associate prehistory with his personal conceptions in the form of a romance, wrote two novels: The Novel of Mauer, fossil man, narrative of the Golden Age, begun in 1923, "a novel of a primitive individualist, discovering life, creating art, science and philosophy," and The phallic idol, a novel of Glozeline times, written between 1926 and 1928," the history of a colony of individualists living in beauty at the dawn of the Neolithic era."

(and pbk, 480pp, 1999)* In this compelling adventure, the stories of three wise women — each called Zena, yet born thousands of generations apart — unfold in a compassionate and moving saga that celebrates the remarkable growth of the human spirit. Ranging from the African savanna more than one million years ago to the fertile shores of the Red Sea to the magnificent limestone caves of the Pyrenees mountains — where the first artists painted the firelit wonders of their existence — scene after breathtaking scene draws us into their lives as they negotiate a world they do not understand. In this world, an ostrich eggshell becomes a wondrous device for carrying water and the earth's unpheavals reveal a lush, lifesaving oasis to a starving people...

Little Ruadha, or Red Head, for instance, was the daughter of a very fine fisherman, who became chief of the River People. And Yeru was the son of a head man among the Flint People, who lived in hut-circles on the hillsides, and his mother, Tua, came from the Tree People. Then there were the Ploughing People, the Shepherd People, the Marsh People, the Cave People, and the Horse People. All these tribes came to trade at the Stone of Covenant, and gradually grew to know and understand each other. more...

Through these pages wander Pic, the Weapon Maker, and his friends, the Hairy Mammoth and the Woolly Rhinoceros. Thrilling adventures with cave men, and with cave lions, buffaloes, and other great beasts, make this an absorbing tale. The accuracy of its setting and the sympathy of its interpretation of that strange Europe of which it tells is sealed by the introduction by Henry Fairfield Osborn, Director of the American Museum of Natural History.

Here you meet again Pic, the robust, active, playful friend of the Hairy Mammoth and the Woolly Rhinoceros-a cave-man hero, not the movie variety of caveman, but the real thing. The scene is the same as in "Pic," the Europe of twenty-five thousand years ago, and the incidents are based upon scientific facts. The books are not conceived in the spirit of many juveniles doling out dry, unpalatable instruction under a sugar-coating of artificial romance-but all the wealth of real adventure in which real creatures play upon a stage built upon the facts of science is here offered to you and your children in a fantastic and a delightful form.

"The moon of the Singing Grass has come and gone three times and still there is no rain." Mishoo's prehistoric clan is starving; her little sister's arms are like twigs. Her mother, a Dream Catcher, once spoke with spirits. Now she is a spirit herself and tells a sleeping Mishoo: "You are Dream-Catcher. You must go to the cave of the She-Tiger." There Mishoo discovers rock that comes alive with sliding shadows. Something stirs in her, and she begins to create images on the cave walls-images of galloping horses, fighting rhinoceros, bison, and more. In each moment of inspiration she wonders, "Am I catching spirits or being caught myself?" Leaving the cave, she discovers clouds moving like mammoths across the sky. Her dream has caught; her clan is saved. But something more has happened in this imagined story of how the first cave paintings came to be. A young girl has become an artist.

Magical promise shines within Kerlew, and the shaman Carp, recognizing the boy's gift, tries to claim both mother and son for his own. But Tillu wants no part of him; she takes her son and flees, until she and Kerlew meet the nomadic reindeer people who follow the vast herds. Welcomed by the tribe, they are all too soon caught up in a dangerous struggle between the hunter/herder Heckram, who helps Kerlew search for his true spirit friend, and the dangerously ambitious Joboam. Then Carp, too, finds the reindeer people and begins a cunning campaign to become their shaman, and to lure both Kerlew and Tillu back into his power. But Kerlew has felt the call of the Wolf spirit and now must seek the true path in a conflict between his totem and that of Carp's spirit of the Bear.
