Human social organization during the Late Pleistocene: Beyond the nomadic-egalitarian model
Many researchers assume that until 10–12,000 years ago, humans lived in small, mobile,
relatively egalitarian bands. This “nomadic-egalitarian model” suffuses the social sciences. It …

Ancient genomes show social and reproductive behavior of early Upper Paleolithic foragers
Present-day hunter-gatherers (HGs) live in multilevel social groups essential to sustain a
population structure characterized by limited levels of within-band relatedness and …

Variability in the organization and size of hunter-gatherer groups: Foragers do not live in small-scale societies
Mobile hunter-gatherers are often characterized as living in small communities where
mobility and group size are products of the environmentally determined distribution of …

Hunter-gatherer multilevel sociality accelerates cumulative cultural evolution
Although multilevel sociality is a universal feature of human social organization, its
functional relevance remains unclear. Here, we investigated the effect of multilevel sociality …

Who teaches children to forage? Exploring the primacy of child-to-child teaching among Hadza and BaYaka hunter-gatherers of Tanzania and Congo
Teaching is cross-culturally widespread but few studies have considered children as
teachers as well as learners. This is surprising, since forager children spend much of their …
