Description: The sixth part of a series for Channel 4 in 2000 called 'The Day the World Took Off', made by Windfall Films and partly devised and presented by Alan Macfarlane. Covers the last ten thousand years and the whole world.

Time: 8000 BC - AD 2000

Place: The World. This film looks at ten thousand years of human history, focusing on the domestication and harnessing of animals. Why does this principally happen in Europe and Asia, rather than in sub-Saharan Africa, Australia and South America? The final overview considers the possible future of the human species.
