Why Did Ancient Humans Start Wearing Clothes?

Описание: You put on clothes this morning without thinking about it. But the real reason your species started covering its body has nothing to do with modesty or fashion — and everything to do with survival, parasites, and a discovery that may have rewired the human brain.

In this video, you'll find out why a tiny genetic study of lice cracked open one of anthropology's biggest mysteries, how a bone needle changed what it meant to be human, and why the clothes on your body right now are part of the reason your body looks the way it does. The answer connects you to a moment 170,000 years ago when your entire species nearly went extinct.
