Shea argues that over the last three million years hominins' technological strategies shifted from occasional tool use, much like that seen among living non-human primates, to a uniquely human pattern of obligatory tool use. Examining how the lithic archaeological record changed over the course of human evolution, he compares tool use by living humans and non-human primates and predicts how the archaeological stone tool evidence should have changed as distinctively human behaviors evolved. Those behaviors include using cutting tools, logistical mobility (carrying things), language and symbolic artifacts, geographic dispersal and diaspora, and residential sedentism (living in the same place for prolonged periods). Shea then tests those predictions by analyzing the archaeological lithic record from 6,500 years ago to 3.5 million years ago."--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Tools, Prehistoric. 650 0 $a Stone implements. 650 0 $a Human evolution. 650 0 $a Social evolution. 650 7 $a Human evolution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963030 650 7 $a Social evolution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122456 650 7 $a Stone implements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01133862 650 7 $a Tools, Prehistoric. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01152615 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u https://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1618/2016028973-b.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u https://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1618/2016028973-d.html 856 41 $3 Table of contents only $u https://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1618/2016028973-t.html 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214011645.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20170722010828.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=26A099406EA311E79084E9F2DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
