I’ve been reading an older book, called “The Axemaker’s gift”, by two authors, Burke and Ornstein. It suggests that the increase in our intellectual capacity to reason and create, began with making stone tools, such as hand axes. The steps from early hominids to our species, are explained, I am finding it a fascinating read. Very much enjoy your videos, Stefan, this one really resonated since I’ve been reading this book! It also suggests language originated, as the tool makers would need to show and explain to apprentices, how to make them.
