(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

Putt, Shelby S. and Sobanawartiny Wijeakumar 2020 Tracing the evolutionary trajectory of verbal working memory with neuro-archaeology How the Brain Got Language – Towards a New Road Map, Arbib, Michael A. (ed.), pp. 272–288 | Chapter

We used optical neuroimaging to explore the extent of functional overlap between working memory (WM) networks involved in language and Early Stone Age toolmaking behaviors. Oldowan tool production activates two verbal WM areas, but the functions of these areas are indistinguishable from general… read more
