Another article to provoke thought. As someone who has spent countless hours reading, writing and thinking about ancient humans and the development of patriarchal structures, I found this article fascinating and insightful. It's a longish read, but well worth it. How can we apply this man's insights into our contemporary struggles with inequality, inherited wealth and power, and the grip of comodification?

Many of the ideas presented,and much of the evidence cited, was new to me, and very interesting. Great food for thought!
However IMO this writer is Terrible, he repeats himself endlessly, Greatly undermining the fascination of the information given!
