Each species of our primate cousins is unique as it represents the outcome of independent evolution. Yet, humans appear to be a remarkable outlier as we have numerous characteristics so far un-described in any other primate. Why should this be? This symposium will address several important distinctly human "biologically enculturated" characteristics, both in relation to each other and in contrast to our evolutionary cousins, and will also help to organize how and in what sequence distinctly human physical, mental, social, and cultural features evolved.

HOT91.9FM — Mansfield in the Morning is, quite simply, the best way to wake up. Hosted by the legendary Jeremy Mansfield, Mansfield in the Morning is 3 hours of fun, laughs (possibly a few tears) and, of course, the best old skool and R&B. Join the team of Sam Cowen, Simon Hill, John Walland and award – winning producer, Will Scott, every week day from 6 – 9 am as they put the fun back into morning radio again.

Thank you all for this great first week of fundraising. It was great, but I still need more support. I would love to keep doing it for another 2 years, but to be honest, I am broke. For these past two years, I have brought on the show some of the top academics/scholars in a diversity of fields, like Psychology, Anthropology, Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, Philosophy, and even Literary Studies. Some of the biggest names that appeared throughout my 300 interviews include: Noam Chomsky, Jerome Kagan, Randy Thornhill, Dale Purves, Michael Ruse, David Buss, Simon Blackburn, Alexander Rosenberg, Terrence Deacon, Richard Shweder, Diane Halpern, Robert Plomin, David Sloan Wilson, Richard Wrangham, Azar Gat, David C. Geary, Leda Cosmides, Todd Shackelford, Diana Fleischman, Don Ross, Gad Saad, Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, Patricia Churchland, David Barash, Peter Singer, Martin Daly, David Benatar, Paul Slovic, Glenn Geher, Lars Penke, Kevin Mitchell, Randolph Nesse, Bo Winegard, Cory Clark, Peter DeScioli, Daniel Nettle, Steve Stewart-Williams, Paul Slovic, Robert Trivers, Helen Fisher, Richard Haier, Nicole Barbaro, Pascal Boyer, Steven Hayes, Lee Cronk, Chris Stringer, Lyn Wadley, Donald Hoffman, Cecilia Heyes, Nicholas Humphrey, Indre Viskontas, Nicholas Christakis, Daniel Lieberman, Marco Del Giudice, Peter Ungar, Alice Eagly, Daniel Everett, Susan Pinker, and many others. On my show, you can certainly find informative, well-researched, engaging, and fun interviews on topics that will feed your intellectual interest. My income for these past two years has depended completely on the donations made by my charitable patrons and Paypal supporters, but, unfortunately, it is not enough. In today's society, scientific literacy is ever more important, and, hopefully, I have been contributing to spread knowledge outside of academia in a format that I try my best to be accessible even to laypeople.

She directs a Wits-recognized programme called ACACIA (Ancient Cognition and Culture in Africa). Her specialty is the African Stone Age: Middle Stone Age (which lasted from approximately 300,000 to 25,000 years ago) and Later Stone Age (the last 25,000 years). She began her career researching social and ecological issues during the past 25,000 years of the Later Stone Age in southern Africa. Data for her interpretations were obtained from sites in Namibia and South Africa. Dr. Wadley's current research is dedicated to the cognition of people who lived in the Middle Stone Age. In this episode, we talk about how we can learn more about the evolution of human cognition through Archaeology. We discuss how we can make inferences about human cognitive abilities from artifacts, and also their limitations. We got through specific abilities, like imagination, planning, analogical reasoning, multitasking, and symbolism, and how a big part of them have a social ingredient. We address the question of what is a modern human. We also talk about the interplay between technology and cognition. Dr. Wadley tells us what she learned by studying the production of compound adhesives. Finally, we address topics like the respect we should have for the cognitive capacity of people who lived in traditional societies; the potential impact of modern culture in the evolution of our cognition; and our shared human nature. -- Follow Dr. Wadley's work: Faculty page: http://bit.ly/2GZBsUb ResearchGate profile: http://bit.ly/2YVys1o -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, SCIMED, PER HELGE HAAKSTD LARSEN, LAU GUERREIRO, RUI BELEZA, ANTÓNIO CUNHA, CHANTEL GELINAS, JERRY MULLER, FRANCIS FORDE, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BRIAN RIVERA, ADRIANO ANDRADE, YEVHEN BODRENKO, SERGIU CODREANU, ADAM BJERRE, ŁUKASZ STAFINIAK, AIRES ALMEIDA, BERNARDO SEIXAS, HERBERT GINTIS, RUTGER VOS, RICARDO VLADIMIRO, BO WINEGARD, JOHN CONNORS, VEGA GIDEY, CRAIG HEALY, OLAF ALEX, PHILIP KURIAN, JONATHAN VISSER, AND DAVID DIAS!

In this episode: Lyn Wadley, University of the Witwatersrand, The Origin and Development of Fire Technology in Africa; Sarah Wurz, University of the Witwatersrand, Klasies River as a 120,000-Year-Old Archive of Human Behavior in South Africa; Judith Sealy, University of Cape Town, Behavior and Settlement Patterns in Coastal Stone Age Communities – Evidence from Stable Isotopes.

This symposium explores the evolutionary origins of human imagination, its impact on the sciences and arts, the consequences of imagination impairment, and the fundamental genetic and neurological basis of human imagination. Early H. sapiens took imaginative expressions to new heights. By 100,000 years ago, perforated and ochre-covered marine shells were found in early modern human burials and living sites and thereafter more material culture items convey imagination.

Lyn Wadley (Univ of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg) contends that the manufacture of compound adhesives and compound paints by 100,000 years ago in South Africa is clear evidence for modern thought processes that involve, for example, multi-tasking. Some early hunting technologies support this conclusion. Cultural traditions, reminiscent of hunter-gatherer ones practiced in historic times, are also evident in South Africa’s Middle Stone Age, by not less than 100,000 years ago.

One of the enduring questions of human origins is when, where and how we "Behaviorally Modern Humans" emerged and why and how we eventually replaced all the other human-like species. This series takes a fresh look at the situation today with a critical examination of the available evidence from multiple sources. Rick Potts (Smithsonian Institution) leads off with a talk about African Climate of the Last 400,000 Years, followed by Alison S. Brooks (George Washington Univ/Smithsonian Institution) on East African Archaeological Evidence, and Lyn Wadley (Univ of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg) on South African Archaeological Evidence.
