Is it Intensification Yet? Current Archaeological Perspectives on the Evolution of Hunter-Gatherer Economies (2015, background): “This is perhaps not surprising given the common perception that what characterizes macroscale changes in human economies over the last 100,000 years or so is increasing diversification, technological sophistication, and more intensive landscape and resource use (Marlowe 2005).”
Who is The Fairest One of All? How Evolution Guides Peer and Media Influences on Female Body Dissatisfaction (2011, background): “A large cross-cultural study of hunter–gatherers revealed that median local group size was 30 (Marlowe, 2005).”
Who teaches children to forage? Exploring the primacy of child-to-child teaching among Hadza and BaYaka Hunter-Gatherers of Tanzania and Congo (2020, background): “…domain of subsistence skills due to their primacy in everyday life, their relative difficulty, and their evolutionary significance—making it likely that teaching will be observed in this domain (Hewlett & Roulette, 2016; Kaplan, Hill, Lancaster, & Hurtado, 2000; Kline et al., 2013; Marlowe, 2005).”
Who keeps children alive? A review of the effects of kin on child survival (2008, background): “There are also problems in using extant hunter-gatherer populations as models for past hunter-gatherers as many of the remaining hunter-gatherers occupy marginal environments unsuitable for farming activities (though this view has recently been questioned: Marlowe, 2005).”
Beauty and the beast: mechanisms of sexual selection in humans (2010, background): “However, foragers typically cannot accumulate great wealth or resources (Marlowe, 2005), and all humans were foragers prior to about 10,000 years ago.”
The Evolution of the Human Capacity for “Killing at a Distance”: The Human Fossil Evidence for the Evolution of ProjectileWeaponry (2009, background): “© Springer Science + Business Media B.V. 2009 202 S.E. Churchill and J.A. Rhodes and human diet breadth (Churchill, 1993; Marlowe, 2005; O’Connell, 2006).”
Ecology in an anthropogenic biosphere (2015, background): “…2007b, 2011) and an array of other subsistence regimes including the cooperative exchange of these technologies and their material products, enabling their populations to grow even more in both scale and complexity (Marlowe 2005, Hamilton et al. 2007, Nolan and Lenski 2010, Ellis et al. 2013b).”
Fission‐Fusion Dynamics (2008, methodology): “Fission-fusion dynamics are likewise typical of modern humans, including hunter-gatherers (Marlowe 2005), although they are not often explicitly recognized.”
A comparison of bonobo and chimpanzee tool use: evidence for a female bias in the Pan lineage (2010, positive): “Long-term studies with chimpanzees have shown that females are more accomplished toolusers during food acquisition, a fact with some implications for theories of human evolution (McGrew 1979; Marlowe 2005; Byrne 2007; Pruetz & Bertolani 2007).”
Modern gender roles and agricultural history: the Neolithic inheritance (2015, neutral): “1 For examples of other research papers in which gender plays a role see Galor and Weil (1996), Klasen (2002), Miller (2008), or Doepke and Tertilt (2009, 2011).”
Evolution of Cooperation among Mammalian Carnivores and Its Relevance to Hominin Evolution (2012, background): “…foods (Grine and Fleagle 2009), discoveries of fossilized bones with butchery marks suggest early hominins might have used stones to remove energy-rich flesh from the carcasses of large mammals by 2.5– 3.4 Ma (McPherron et al. 2010; but see Domı́nguez-Rodrigo, Pickering, and Bunn 2010, 2011).”
