(ed.), pp. 370–387 | Chapter

We present a new road map for research on “How the Brain Got Language” that adopts an EvoDevoSocio perspective and highlights comparative neuroprimatology – the comparative study of brain, behavior and communication in extant monkeys and great apes – as providing a key grounding for hypotheses on… read more

Stout, Dietrich 2020 Archaeology and the evolutionary neuroscience of language: The technological pedagogy hypothesis How the Brain Got Language – Towards a New Road Map, Arbib, Michael A. (ed.), pp. 256–271 | Chapter

Comparative approaches to language evolution are essential but cannot by themselves resolve the timing and context of evolutionary events since the last common ancestor with chimpanzees. Archaeology can help to fill this gap, but only if properly integrated with evolutionary theory and the… read more
