cheers Bonzo the cat- this is the most intersting thing ive read here for a while. If the human brain has reportedly been at its current shape size and form for around 80,000 years then theres no doubt that people were capable of making permanent structures in the mesolithic period. Why does the enlightenment notion of historical linear progression still underpin the dominant historical narratives? I could mention the mayans apparent rejection of civillisation but historians keep coming up with new "reasons" why their civilisation "failed". Could also mention that history is written and societies that dont write- dont write history- and therefore get written out by societies that do
