CARTA: Tool Use and Technology: Dietrich Stout - Early Hominin Stone Tools

from CARTA - Anthropogeny (Audio) · host UCTV: UC San Diego

This symposium addresses the interactive gene-culture co-evolution of the human brain with tool use and technology - ranging from simple stone tools millions of years ago to computers today.
