The Acheulean handaxe has always been considered a social phenomenon. Corbey et al.35 provide a major challenge to this argument, arguing quite rightly, that it has never been independently established that handaxe temporal depth is a produ...

We argue that enhanced play may have contributed to the emergence of complex language systems in modern humans (Homo sapiens). To support this idea, we first discuss evidence for an expansion of playing behavior connected to the extended ch...

Foraging in burned areas has been suggested to represent the earliest stage in the use and control of fire by early hominins. Recently burned areas offer immediate foraging benefits including increased search efficiency for high-ranked food...
