The ultimate Guide for the Ice Age Traveller
The (late) Ice Age is unknown territory for many of us. This most
charming story, combined with lots of factual information, will
carry you back to that distant period.
The fictitious part recounts a journey across Europe, like our
ancestors would have made it 15,000 years ago, helping us
visualise their living conditions and thought processes.
Compassion for their fellow humans and distrust went hand in
hand, just like in our days.
An extensive documentation of prehistoric sites highlights some
aspects of the Magdalenian civilisation, the last one of the major
Paleolithic cultures that collapsed by the onset of the Late Ice
Age, because of the abruptly changing climate.
About the writers
The authors originally made a name for non-specialist publications on continental drift, causing spectacular
changes in landscape, climate, vegetation and fauna through hundreds of millions of years, taking the
Meuse-Rhine Euregion (the borderland of Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium around Aachen,
Maastricht, Hasselt, Liège and Eupen) as an example.
Since 1997, they concentrate on the impact of these changes on prehistoric people in Europe. ‘Spirits of the
Mothers’ is their first book dealing with this subject.
The book "Spirits of the Mothers" also appeared in Dutch under the title "Geesten van de moeders" and will
shortly appear in German under the title "Die Geister der Mütter".
