第6集 由猿變人（Human）
人類是什麼，我們的祖先是什麼樣的人？長久以來，人們一直認為冰河時代的法國神話和神秘的洞穴壁畫一直被認為是一扇通向過去的窗戶——要是我們能理解他們就好了。但它們的意義至今仍然是一個謎。現在有驚人的證據來自於納米比亞布須曼人的舞蹈和南非的岩石藝術以及英國和美國心理學家對幻覺的研究與洞穴中的圖像進行了比較。其結果是對圖像有了全新的詮釋。我們現在可以看到石器時代祖先的思想，並重建洞穴畫家的世界。
考古學發現的古壁畫構圖複雜，他們相信這便是人類有象征性思想的證據。這些壁畫並非只屬一人所創，它們是人類社群走在一起，共同人享受生活體驗的證據，同時也是有智慧的人類社會群走在一起，共同分享生活體驗的證據，同時也是有智慧的人類，賴以催眠及醫病的原始方法。壁畫標記著我們對自我源頭的追尋，在三萬三千年前，我們的生物進化終於完成，開始有一套自我的價值觀，我們成為了完整的人類。
15萬年前最初的人類在非洲進化，他們是我們的直系祖先，開始向北遷移到一個未知的世界。

埃策爾·卡德納（Doctor Etzel Cardena）醫生是美國國防部的心理醫生，他研究意識的扭曲狀態，珍妮特·克羅斯利（Janet Crossley）具有自我催眠的特殊才能，卡德納醫生想通過珍妮特與我們遠古的祖先進行溝通，進入他們原始的世界。
法國布拉森普伊帕皮岩洞
這個岩洞是2萬5千年前會制造工具並使用工具的生物的家。那些在岩洞居住者是不是史前的生物，是否和我們是同樣的生物？19世紀的考古學家在法國的岩洞內發現了一個很小的類似人頭的雕像，被稱之為“布拉森普伊的維納斯”，是2萬5千年前的產物。問題出來了，是什麼人雕塑出來的？雕塑她的人是我們的同類還是異類？地球上像我們這樣的生物是什麼時候出現的？
布拉森普伊的維納斯
南漢普頓大學托馬斯·道森
考古學家發現的骨頭和石頭工具本身並不重要，他們在尋找它們之間的聯系和我們能開出的圖畫以及這些圖畫所代表的意義，看著這些聯系和圖畫，我們不禁發問制造它們的人是誰？他們與我們有什麼關系？他們與我們有什麼相似之處？
凱爾西山
法國卡布勒雷特貝-梅勒洞穴
在加龍河平原的另一側是凱爾西山腳，我們的祖先留下了另外一些證據。法國的考古學家還發現了一個怪現象，和南非的岩畫一樣，貝-梅勒的圖畫中動物是重疊的，看不出原來是什麼。科學家們第一次有了確鑿的證據說明催眠和幻覺是解釋岩洞繪畫的關鍵，托馬斯·道森：“我們能看到這些人不光關心他們生活的現實世界，而且也關注精神世界和其他的現實。不只是我們現在身處的物質世界，他們用圖表描述那些不同的世界。我們的藝術也有這種情況，建築中也有，我們用不同的方式尋找不同的世界。”
卡布勒雷特岩石畫
卡布勒雷特馬的岩石畫
這些岩石畫是2萬5千年前繪制的，看上去繪畫者描繪的是他們身邊的動物，令人費解的是這個岩洞沒有人類居住的痕跡，兩匹馬的身上有紅黑色的原點狀的光環和繪畫者的手印裝飾。托馬斯·道森：“我們不知道古人是怎麼想起畫它們的，我們需要解釋這些圖畫，那些古人們通過畫在岩洞壁上的圖畫想表達什麼？”如果我們能合理解釋這些圖畫，就可以理解祖先的思維，看出他們是否和我們相似，但是至今考古學家沒有找到滿意的答案。
南非誇祖盧-納塔爾 德拉肯斯山脈
沙岩壁畫羚羊圖案
威特沃特斯蘭德大學大衛·劉易斯·威廉斯教授
“這裏和法國岩洞中發現的繪畫之間的聯系困擾了人們許多年，和法國岩洞裏的圖畫一樣，有許多動物。”畫面上一半以上的圖案是非洲旋角大羚羊，考古學家們相信這些畫面，可以幫助我們了解2萬5千年前生活在岩洞中的不為人知的世界。對於托馬斯·道森和大衛·劉易斯·威廉斯來說，德拉肯斯的繪畫表現的就是這種景觀，他們認為繪畫記錄了薩滿人在催眠時的幻覺。
卡拉哈裏沙漠
卡拉哈裏薩滿儀式
生活在卡拉哈裏沙漠的人們，雖然他們不是靠古老的狩獵方式生活，但是他們的信仰依然是傳統的，這裏的人們在夜裏跳舞召喚旋角大羚羊，將羚羊的神力賦予他們，人類學家稱之為薩滿儀式。托馬斯·道森：“我們看見的是典型的薩滿催眠，他和全世界人們的類似經曆相關，這是因為薩滿人在扭曲的意識中的經曆是相同的，他們表述的方式也十分相似，他們還利用動物的靈魂幫助他們進入精神世界。”
Episode 6 / Human
What does it mean to be human and what kind of people were our ancestors? The fabulous and mysterious cave paintings in France have long been thought to provide a window into the past - if only we could understand them. but their meaning has remained a mystery. Now remarkable evidence from the trance-dances of Namibian bushmen and South African rock art and research on hallucinations by psychologists in Britain and the USA has been compared with the images in the caves themselves. The result is an astonishing new interpretation of the images. We can now see into the minds of our stone age ancestors and reconstruct the world of the cave-painters.（文字来源：BBC TWO Ape-Man）
The ancient murals found in archaeology are complex, They believe that this is evidence of symbolic thought in humans. These murals are not created by one person alone, They are the human community Walking together, The common people Enjoy the evidence of life experience, At the same time, there is a group of intelligent human beings Walking together, Sharing evidence of life experience, At the same time Is also Intelligent human beings, The original method of hypnosis and medical disease. The murals mark our search for our source, in 33,000 years ago, Our biological evolution is finally complete, Start having a set of values, We have become complete human beings.
The first humans evolved in Africa 150,000 years ago. They were our immediate ancestors, and they began to move north into an unknown world.

La grott du Pape, Brassempouy, France
The cave is home to creatures that made tools and used tools 25,000 years ago. Those living in caves are prehistoric creatures, or are we the same creatures as we are? Archaeologists in the 19th century found a tiny, head-like statue in a cave in France, Is referred to as "the Venus of Brassempouy", a product of 25,000 years ago. So the question is, What people sculpture out? Is her sculpture of our own kind or alien? When did creatures like us appear on earth?
The Venus of Brassempouy
Thomas Dowson, University of Southampton
Archaeologists found bones and stone tools itself is not important, they are looking for the contact between them and we can offer the pictures and the meaning of these pictures represent, look at those links and pictures, we can not help but ask who make them? What do they have to do with us? What do they have in common with us?
Kelsey Hill
La grotte du Pech-Merle, Cabrerets, France
On the other side of the Garonne river plain is kelsey's foot, and our ancestors left some other evidence. French archaeologists have found a strange phenomenon, Like the South African rock paintings, the animals are superimposed on the picture of Pech-Merle, I can't see what it was. For the first time, scientists have conclusive evidence that hypnosis and hallucinations are the key to explaining cave paintings, Thomas Dowson: "We can see these people not only care about the real world of their lives, but also the spiritual world and other realities. It's not just the physical world we're in right now, they're graphically describing the different worlds. We have this in our art, and in architecture, we look for different worlds in different ways."
Ten petroglyph of cabrerets
The petroglyph of horses of cabrerets
These rock paintings were drawn about 25,000 years ago, and they look like the animals around them, Inexplicably, this cave has no trace of human habitation, The two horses were decorated with red and black primordial rings and the hand prints of the painter. Thomas Dowson: "We don't know how the ancients thought of drawing them. We need to explain these pictures. What do the ancient people want to say by drawing pictures on the walls of caves?" If we can explain these pictures properly, we can understand our ancestors' thinking and see if they are similar to us, but so far, archaeologists have not found satisfactory answers.
The Drakensberg, Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa
Sandstone mural antelope pattern
Prof David Lewis-Williams, University of Witwatersrand
"The connection between the paintings and the paintings found in the French caves has baffled people for many years, like the paintings in the caves of France, with many animals." More than half of the images on the screen are the African oryx, and archeologists believe these images will help us understand the unknown world that lived in caves 25,000 years ago. For Thomas Dowson and David Lewis-Williams, the drakens' paintings represent the landscape, which they believe captures the hypnotic hallucination of the shaman.
Tsumkwe district, Kalahari desert
The kalahari shaman ceremony
The people who live in the kalahari desert, although they don't live by old way of hunting, but their faith is still the traditional, people here in the middle of the night dance called swing Angle oryx, gives the antelope divine power to them, anthropologists call shaman ritual. Thomas Dowson: "We saw a typical shaman hypnosis, he and similar experience related to the people of the world, this is because the manchu with distorted experience of consciousness is the same, the way they express is also very similar, they also use the soul of the animals to help them enter the spirit world."
