Stone age holidays
‘Nettle and sphagnum moss soup?’ asked Manuel. It was almost edible... If you had no sense of smell and pretended that your taste buds hadn’t evolved yet! I had another mouthful of boiled-up Spanish grass and river sand. I coughed and spluttered and went ‘Uggh!’ Manuel smiled from beneath a thick, bright green moustache: ‘Spoken like a true Neanderthal!’
Manuel luque Is a professional archaeologist and director of Paleorama, which offers the world’s first fly-drive ‘Stone Age’ holidays. Modem ‘time travellers’ can now enjoy prehistoric breaks in a riverside field near Burgos. In northern Spain. They have to make their own meals, and because it is illegal to hunt in the area, the menu is mainly vegetarian.
But before you can cook your lunch, you must make a fire. So for about half an hour I collected leaves and fallen fir needles before being shown, for another hour, how to light them by rubbing two twigs together. The dress code was relaxed. Fox has never been my favourite fabric. Deerskin has never suited me, either. So my host let me wear modem leisurewear. We don’t insist on animal skins,’ he explained. ‘No clothing has ever been found. We can only guess what our ancestors dressed in.
‘This is hands-on archaeology,’ he continued, ladling his hedgerow casserole into a home-made animal skin bowl. ‘I want people to relate to their ancestors, their lifestyles and their achievements. Palaeolithic man was not a beast. He liked Innovations and he knew how to adapt to his environment. Stinging nettles were an important part of his diet. He made soup as well as soap out of them. Our breaks are all about learning about primitive technology and appreciating the cleverness of our ancestors.’
Guests at the five-day camps can visit the famous Palaeolithic remains at Atapuerca. You make your own accommodation –primitive tents for four – and your own bread out of crushed plant roots. There are also classes m beginners’ cave painting. It takes three seconds to char the end of a branch for charcoal work but five days to make coloured paint from ochre. It takes years to be able to paint a really realistic auroch (a type of large wild cattle now extinct). I stuck to stick-men.
‘People have a low opinion of Neanderthals – they are very misunderstood,’ Manuel told me. taskActually, they were a success story. Neanderthal man survived for 270,000 years. Civilised man has been around for only 7,000. This is my attempt to make a subject which I am so passionate about more popular,task he said.
When our prehistoric-camp participants leave, they realise nature is full of resources. They see their ancestors in a new and positive light. Not as dirty, smelly, ugly Idiots. They learn to respect their specialist skills.task He looked at my handiwork. Thattasks not a bad shoe,task he said. I stared at him in disbelief. taskActually ittasks a soup bowl,task I said.

Word formation
6 Read the text below. Form derivatives from the words in brackets so that they fit the text. Complete the gaps with those new words. Every gap corresponds to a different task (1-6).
It is very 1) likely that fashion has existed since humans first started walking on two legs!
Figurines from the Stone Age seem to suggest that young women were 2) beautifully dressed and wore bracelets around their arms, for instance.
Up until 800 BC, however, clothes were mostly made from plain- coloured fabrics, but then one 3) discovery revolutionized the ancient fashion world.
The Phoenicians (located in the Middle East) discovered that a black substance contained in sea snails could be turned into a rich purple clothes dye. In no time, ‘Tyrian Purple’ turned the Phoenician city-state of Sarepta into a 4) powerful trading city.
Rulers and the 5) wealthy from across the Mediterranean offered a high price for these textiles, which had become a symbol of power and status.
Although the dye eventually disappeared, it led to a desire for 6) colourful luxury textiles that continues to this day. So, maybe that makes Sarepta the first fashion capital of the world!
