Who are we? Where do we come from? What makes us different from others?

These questions are more pressing than ever today. Johannes Krause and Thomas Trappe go back to prehistory to answer them and tell us how we became the Europeans we are today.

Migration and migratory flows are not phenomena of our time. From the moment they stood on their own two feet, people began to move from their cradle, Africa, to the whole world and Europe. This journey was almost unknown to us until recently, but new methods of genetics bring it to light.

Johannes Krause, one of the leading scientists in this field, and Thomas Trappe explain what genes say about our origin.

• Are there "primitive" peoples?
• When did Europeans lose their dark color?
• What role did the Balkan route play in the last 40,000 years?

A great story that shows that Europe cannot even be imagined without the immigrants who for thousands of years came here from all directions, bringing something new each time.
