Man the Hunter nearing 60
Reflections on primitive communism
if a cabin of hungry [Iroquois] meets another whose provisions are not entirely exhausted, the latter share with the newcomers the little which remains to them without waiting to be asked, although they expose themselves thereby to the same danger of perishing as those whom they help at their own expense so humanely and with such greatness of soul
Greeks and Victorians
There is a paradox in Engels’ well-known theory of state formation contained in The Origin of the Family Private Property and the State . The state in Engels’ view represented a triumph of a small elite of non-producers over the vast majority, and a world-historical defeat for the common people. Yet the Athenian state, Engels’ prime example, does not conform to the pattern: it becomes more “democratic” as the state evolves rather than less. The p…
Hunter-Gatherers and Human Evolution
One of the most persistent debates in anthropology and related disciplines has been over the relative weight of aggression and competition versus nonaggression and cooperation as drivers of human behavioral evolution. The literature on hunting and gathering societies-past and present-has played a prominent role in these debates. This review compares recent literature from both sides of the argument and evaluates how accurately various authors use…
Hunter-gatherers on the best-seller list
Purpose – The question of violence in hunter-gatherer society has animated philosophical debates since at least the seventeenth century. Steven Pinker has sought to affirm that civilization, is superior to the state of humanity during its long history of hunting and gathering. The purpose of this paper is to draw upon a series of recent studies that assert a baseline of primordial violence by hunters and gatherers. In challenging this position th…

Problems in Kalahari Historical Ethnography and the Tolerance of Error
The !Kung San or Bushmen of Namibia and Botswana are one of the most thoroughly documented hunting and gathering societies in the annals of African anthropology. In recent years two radically different views of the !Kung San have emerged in the anthropological literature. One sees the !Kung as hunters and gatherers living under changed circumstances and maintaining an old but adaptable way of life: the characteristic features associated with the …
Art, Science, or Politics? The Crisis in Hunter-Gatherer Studies
In the complex history of hunter-gatherer studies, several overlapping and at times antagonistic discourses can be discerned. However, one critique has emerged that would render all hunter-gatherer discourses irrelevant and do away with the concept altogether. The paper explores the poststructuralist roots of this "revisionism" and then argues why the concept of hunter-gatherer continues to be politically relevant and empirically valid. However, …

The Population Ecology of Man in the Early Upper Pleistocene of Southern Africa
The object of this essay is to study the effect of shifting Pleistocene climates on the numbers and distribution of early man. The geographical setting for the study is southern Africa. Chronologically, it is concerned with the cultures of the First Intermediate Phase—the Fauresmith and the Sangoan, which flourished in this region during the period 50,000–40,000 B.C. The main body of the work is devoted to a description of the ecological zones of…

Man the Hunter
This book, arising from a symposium entitled "Man the Hunter," held at the University of Chicago in April 1966, explores the role of hunting in human evolution. It challenges the then-dominant view of early humans as primarily scavengers, arguing instead that big-game hunting played a crucial role in shaping human social organization, intelligence, and technology. The volume presents ethnographic studies of contemporary hunter-gatherer societies,…
