''Humanity Through the Ages'' ((フランス語:La Civilisation à travers les âges)), released in the US initially as ''Humanity Through Ages'',〔 is a 1908 historical drama film directed by Georges Méliès. The film is an episodic narrative displaying examples of humankind's brutality, from the story of Cain and Abel through the Hague Convention of 1907. ==Summary== The film's first ten episodes feature Cain and Abel, the Druids, Nero and Locusta, the persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire, the pillories of the Middle Ages, the Gibbet of Montfaucon, torture processes in the Middle Ages, Louis XIII, contemporary Parisian ''apaches'', and the Hague Convention of 1907.〔Malthête & Mannoni, p. 229.〕 The Hague scene ends with the convention collapsing into chaos, with the delegates, who had convened to limit the power of armies, directly attacking each other. The eleventh and final scene, titled "Triumph," shows an Angel of Destruction hovering over a battlefield covered with dead and wounded soldiers.
