After apreciating the importance of language, let's move its origins. This video shows one of the lots speculations about the origin of spoken language. 





The quest of fire is a film that show us the primitive language for the early humans in this prehistoric adventure about a trio of warriors who travel the savanna in search of a flame that would replace the fire their tribe has lost.
