An unusually dry winter in 1853 caused Swiss lake levels to fall, exposing ancient remains that attracted much attention – Lubbock helped to excavate some.
In contrast to palaeolithic sites, the neolithic Swiss lake villages produced bones of domestic cattle and cultivated cereal grains, signs of Europe’s first farmers.
