Scant Evidence that Early Prehistoric People were Warlike, Anthropologist claims
"My
argument is that war regularly – not always – leaves archaeological
traces, if a people are known by a substantial record of skeletal
remains, and/or settlement remains, sometimes supported by weapons or
art. Looking at the archaeological record around the world typically
shows that those signs eventually show up, but usually after a more or
less long stretch when they are not present. When this appears as a
recurrent pattern around the world, the straightforward explanation is
that war has beginnings."
