Примечания

Running time approximately 9 hours, abridged by the author. The Ancestor's Tale is a pilgrimage: a journey of four billion years. We, modern human beings, are the pilgrims and we are travelling back through time to see our ancestors. Simultaneously every other living creature is setting off on its own journey with the same mission. Each pilgrim tells its tale along the way, and covers the process involved in the unfolding of life on Earth.
