Visit an exhibition on how the human brain behaves, putting Prehistory into perspective...

Whatever period you look at, the distinction that sets us apart from all other species is culture:  how we consume, produce, live together, attempt to answer our existential questions, etc. 

A wide-ranging summary of Prehistory, one of the most fascinating periods of all time. 

An opportunity to realise that Wallonia is a land marked by Prehistory, and Belgium a pioneer in prehistoric archaeology. A chance to discover more about Philippe Charles Schmerling, the Liège doctor and archaeologist who was the first to apply scientific method to the question of “antediluvian humans” in 1829.
