Meet Zuri, our sophisticated pagan ancestor as she lives her life in
Christchurch in 2200 BC. It is the Neolithic period and the first
civilisation in Britain along the mystical River Avon, an area called
'Avonlands'. Her rituals and mythology embrace nature to a degree that
we no longer understand. Her tribe is contrasted with the wealthy
pensioners, the oldest population in the UK, who now live where her hut
once stood. Most have abandoned the dirty air of London for the
picturesque Dorset coast. This is a social history of two tribes living
in the mysterious region of Stonehenge, with today's pensioner tribe
living to twice Zuri's age, growing overweight and unfit, and when not
idly writing books, overwhelming the NHS.
