A History of the World in five minutes and eight seconds

Here it is, the final summation. The whole series: every single object, from Olduvai stone chopping tool to Solar-powered lamp and charger, via Paracas textile and Hawaiian feather helmet. It's a delirious tour of the history of made things. Made itself, to cap the broadcast series, by a highly advanced group of human beings at Radio 4.

Remember you can download every episode to keep and you're welcome to add your own objects to the collection, which now contains thousands of objects and will be on display on the Radio 4 web site indefinitely. Visit the A History of the World blog for dozens of fascinating posts from behind the scenes by curators and producers.
