The Skulls
The Prehistory museum at Quinson in the Alpes de Haute Provence has opened a new exhibition on man and his environment, which traces the story of life from the formation of the planet to the present day. In an Imax-type cinema, a film depicts the origins of mankind and the way man has adapted to climate change over the centuries. There are models and reconstructions of a mammoth and a sabre-toothed tiger, and a spectacular wall of skulls of early creatures.
