The question of how modern human behaviour emerged from pre-human
hominid behaviour is central to discussions of human evolution.
This important book argues that the capacity to use signs in a
symbolic way, identified by the authors as language, is the basis
for behaviour that can be described as human. The book is the
product of a unique collaboration between the key disciplines in
the debate about human evolution and mentality - psychology and
archaeology. It investigates the significance and nature of the
emergence of linguistic behaviour. The text critically examines the
archaeological record of hominid evolution and argues that
linguistic behaviour emerged no earlier than 100,000 years ago. The
book's interdisciplinary approach allows critical attention to be
given to an impressively broad range of relevant literature. For
the first time, all the known pieces of this evolutionary puzzle
are examined in detail.
