Through Time and Across Traits: Evaluating Explanations of Human Evolution [0.03%]
超越时空和性状：评估人类进化解释的方法

We argue that current explanatory practice misses two situations that can arise in any lineage, not only ours. The first is dynamic: traits continue changing in one direction when a lineage's own niche construction keeps enlarging the probl...

The concept of domestication is important for the biological and social sciences but is framed within Western scientific paradigms that exclude other epistemologies. All human societies engage in multispecies relationships shaped by their o...

Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co-existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. I...

Language is inherently relational, prompting comparative studies to prioritize social, gregarious, and voluble primates as evolutionary models. By prevailing theory, solitary and dispersed primates ought to be silent or communicatively impo...
Diversifying Methods in Evolutionary Anthropology: Autophotography as a Tool for Quasi-Naturalistic Observation of Human Behavior [0.03%]
进化人类学中的研究方法多样化：自拍摄影作为一种类自然主义观察人类行为的工具

A comprehensive evolutionary account of human behavior demands simultaneous consideration of biology, local ecology, and culture. Historically, evolutionary anthropology integrated these dimensions through naturalistic observations which of...

Hominin evolution made physical activity obligatory for survival. Modern environments decoupled effort from ecological returns, generating an evolutionary mismatch that favors energy conservation over voluntary movement. This review disting...

Prehistoric "symbolic" artifacts remain incompletely explained by semiotic models, which emphasize representational meaning but offer limited insight into how such materials emerged and spread across Pleistocene populations. This article de...
