Make Love , not war : was the Golden Rule of the Stone Age( the Stone Tools Made by DESIGN Age ) . <

The first human societies had an extraordinarily high survival need to be able to rely on each other at levels of solidarity that we cannot even imagine. THIS WAS ORGANIZED AS KINSHIP SYSTEMS , FAMILY TREES, GENEOLOGIES .<



The intensity of the kinship network of social connections of a band of 25 to 50 people living in that ecological food chain location would almost constitute a new level of organic organization and integrity above individual bodies; ancient kinship/culture systems were super-organic bodies; the human social group was a harmonious multi-individual Body, Symbolically constituted , imagined and practiced to survive and thrive in the Darwinian struggle for existence , snuggle to perpetuate .<


The Individual human bodies, all of the Some Bodies , were very frail and weak relative to the field of predators they were escaping ( See Below ) . Up-right posture made them slower runners, too ! <



The dominance of the food chain of formidable carnivores ( see below) that humans ultimately reached even in the Stone Age could be reached only by super-social , super internally-cooperative, super-intra-species harmony, because they had relatively_frail_ individual bodies, and needed each other's support. Two or ten heads are better than one in a fight . especially if one head is that of ancestors . p <


It is clear to me that natural selection picked hominin groups with policies of "love thy neighbor as thyself " and "charity" , "cooperation ", "balance " over those that might have derived principles of "selfishness and greed" or "competition " and "savage rivalry" , if there were any in the Stone Age before Civilization. Institutionalized war would have been selected against in the Darwinian sense , in my opinion . <


FORMIDABLE FIELD OF PREDATORS / CARNIVORES HUMANS FACED IN THE STONE AGE , AND COULD ONLY DOMINATE BECAUSE THEY HAD SYMBOLICALLY CONSTITUTED HISTORY AND FAMILIES . FAMILY TREES HAVE GENERATIONAL TIMELINES OR HISTORIES . THEY ARE THE BASIS OF ANCESTOR VENERATION IN THE STONE AGE WHEN HUMAN NATURE ORIGINATED <


what was the field of predators that hominins faced in the Stone Age ? <

During the Stone Age,<


hominins faced a formidable and diverse field of large carnivorous predators, acting as both prey and competitors.

Evidence suggests that for roughly two million years of the Pleistocene, human groups leveraged fire, cooperative social structures, and endurance hunting to transition into high-level or apex predators themselves. @ Popular Archeologyleveraged fire, cooperative social structures, and endurance hunting to transition into high-level or apex predators themselves. @ Popular Archeology +5
