David Wengrow
Author of: The Dawn of Everything, and others
David Wengrow FSA is Professor of Comparative Archaeology at University College London. His research focuses on the fundamental questions of human history and culture, social change, and inequality. He is co-author of The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity (2021), which was a finalist for The Orwell Prize for political writing, and winner of the 20th Wenjin Book Award.
Beneath the surface lie fragments of forgotten worlds - civilizations, myths, and histories waiting to be retold. Archaeology not only uncovers the past but also sparks the imagination, inspiring both research and storytelling. Where fact meets fiction, we rediscover humanity’s shared heritage and timeless search for meaning.
Book signing: This session will be followed by a book signing with the participating authors.
