   Ancestor's Trail Passport - Back

   This document is a list of the main rendezvous along the trail and can be printed on the back of the passport. It also lists the ETA (estimated time of arrival) for the 'Human' pilgrims so that those who wish to join them can know when & where to meet the group.

Interesting articles on evoution and it's understanding.

1. 
   Ancestor's Tale Wikipedia Info

   This document contains most of the information on the Wikipedia page for the book "The Ancestor's Tale" by Richard Dawkins.

   It lists the common ancestors going back in time as elucidated by Dawkins in Chaucerian fashion as pilgrims on a journey to their origins.  The time frames and Rendezvous numbers are the same as we have on the Google and Stepwhere maps and correspond to our Trail.

   The document is formatted for 8.5x14 paper due to the amount of information contained.  We will have a few copies for group leaders available on the Trail.
