David Wengrow in conversation with Rebecca Wragg Sykes


The Dawn of Everything provides an extraordinary perspective of human history and social evolution, challenging our most fundamental assumptions to reveal a broader scope for human emancipation. Authors David Graeber and David Wengrow study the origins of predominant theories of primitive ancestors, barbarianism, human instinct, the origin of states and civilisations and their ties to the conflict between European society and indigenous discourse. In conversation with winner of the 2021 PEN Hessell Tiltman Prize, Rebecca Wragg Sykes, David Wengrow discusses the conceptual shackles and the possibilities that emerge from their removal.

David Wengrow is Professor of Comparative Archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology  at University College London and has been visiting professor at NYU. He conducted archaeological fieldwork in Africa and the Middle East, and is co-author of the international bestseller The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity.

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.
