Plots(1)
This film makes the attempt to solve the mystery of the giant elephants by means of elaborate research, spectacular tests and absolutely unique archive footage. What kind of force does a spear require to penetrate an elephant's skull? Were the spears used in those days able to injure an elephant in such a way? What kind of hunting techniques have to be applied in order to successfully hunt an elephant?
The results are startling: the human beings of those times, most probably the Neanderthal men, were much more intelligent as was assumed up to now. They were social beings with a language and an awareness who actively engaged in their environment and whose skills almost matched those of the modern homo sapiens.
