Evolution of Paleolithic Technologies
The Evolution of Paleolithic Technologies provides a novel perspective on the long-term development of Paleolithic technologies and their makers, one that is more in keeping with contemporary Darwinian thinking about human evolution.Members of the human lineage have been producing stone tools for more than 3 million years. Avoiding conventional approaches based on progressive stages of development, this book instead examines global trends in six separate dimensions of technological behavior between 2.6 million and 10,000 years ago. These artifacts provide key evidence for important evolutionary developments in hominin behavior and cognition.
To draw this picture together, behavioral, cognitive, and Combining these independent trends results in both a broader and a more finely-punctuated perspective on key intervals of change in hominin technological behavior.
