Prehistoric weekends

You'll be offered a revival of daily life in a 10,000 year-old secular holm-oak wood, a natural environment that recalls ancestral feelings and links with the Earth. You'll try to make stone arrow points and axes, needles and bone tools, you'll learn to light a fire with flints, to recognize useful plants and animal trails, and to use prehistoric bows and propeller. But mostly we'll do our best to give you a taste of atavistic human emotions dating back to a time when men lived in harmony with nature.
