The earliest known people of Britain are believed to have arrived around 12,000 years ago at the end of the last Ice Age. These hunter-gatherers would have lived a nomadic lifestyle, moving with the seasons and relying on the natural resources available to them. Over time, they would have developed distinct cultural practices and established the foundations for the rich history of Britain. Exciting archaeological discoveries continue to shed light on the lives of these ancient inhabitants.
