520 8  Fred Flintstone lived in a sunny Stone Age American suburb,
       but his ancestors were respectable, middle-class 
       Victorians. They were very amused to think that prehistory
       was an archaic version of their own world because it 
       suggested that British ideals were eternal. In the 1850s, 
       our prehistoric ancestors were portrayed in satirical 
       cartoons, songs, sketches and plays as ape-like, 
       reflecting the threat posed by evolutionary ideas. By the 
       end of the century, recognisably human cave men inhabited 
       a Stone Age version of late-imperial Britain, sending-up 
       its ideals and institutions. Cave men appeared constantly 
       in parades, civic pageants and costume parties. In the 
       early 1900s American cartoonists and early Hollywood stars
       like Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton adopted and 
       reimagined this very British character, cementing it in 
       global popular culture. Cave men are an appealing way to 
       explore and understand Victorian and Edwardian Britain.
