The ripples of modernity: How we can extend paleoanthropology with the extended evolutionary synthesis [0.03%]
现代性的涟漪：我们如何运用扩展进化综合来深化古人类学研究

Contemporary understandings of paleoanthropological data illustrate that the search for a line defining, or a specific point designating, "modern human" is problematic. Here we lend support to the argument for the need to look for patterns ...

One of the greatest difficulties with evolutionary approaches in the study of stone tools (lithics) has been finding a mechanism for tying culture and biology in a way that preserves human agency and operates at scales that are visible in t...

This essay delves into some of the challenges of studying the coevolution of humans and domestic spaces. These constructed arenas center on food preparation, and as part of the heritable niche they can shift the opportunities for, and const...
The emergence and intensification of early hunter-gatherer niche construction [0.03%]
早期狩猎采集者生态位构建的出现与强化
Jessica C Thompson,David K Wright,Sarah J Ivory
Jessica C Thompson
Hunter-gatherers, especially Pleistocene examples, are not well-represented in archeological studies of niche construction. However, as the role of humans in shaping environments over long time scales becomes increasingly apparent, it is cr...
