Rebecca Wragg Sykes in conversation with Tom Holland


Rebecca Wragg Sykes’s Kindred is the redefining guide to the Neanderthals, and won the 2021 PEN Hessell Tiltman Prize for History. Replete with pioneering Palaeolithic research, it defeats the stereotype of brutish hominins and presents imaginative, intelligent and adaptable ancient relatives who survived more than 300,000 years of climatic upheaval. At a time in which the fate of our species is uncertain, Wragg Sykes’s nuanced study of the Neanderthals is restorative, instilling an understanding of human ability and perseverance. Wragg Sykes joins Tom Holland for a spectacular conversation about her seminal work.

Rebecca Wragg Sykes is a prehistorian, an Honorary Fellow at the University of Liverpool, and a writer. She is the author of one of the 2021 New York Times list of 100 Notable Books, Kindred: Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art- winner of the 2021's PEN Hessell-Tiltman prize.

Tom Holland, an award-winning historian, translator and broadcaster, is the co-presenter of Europe’s most downloaded history podcast, The Rest is History, and has written and presented several TV documentaries on subjects ranging from ISIS to dinosaurs. Holland has been described in The Times as “a leading English cricketer”.
