I Made a Stone Axe and Used it to Fell a Tree - Ben Kilner

This revealed that, nearly 11,000 years ago, just after the last ice age, dog skulls started to change shape. While there were still slender, wolf-like dogs, there were also many with shorter snouts and wider, stockier heads.

Dr Carly Ameen from the University of Exeter, another lead researcher on this project, explained to BBC News that almost half of the diversity we see in modern dog breeds today was already present in dog populations by the middle of the Stone Age.

"It's really surprising," she said. "And it starts to challenge the ideas about whether or not it was the Victorians - and their kennel clubs - that drove this."

What does a discerning hunter from 30,000 years ago carry in their toolkit. Evidence has been found that they would have carried blades and points for butchering and skinning animals as well as for cutting wood.
