OK, thanks, that makes some sense. The issue I'd still raise is why we dance in time, several people organised with music, when dancing solo would seem plenty

The issue I'd still raise is why we dance in time, several people organised with music, when dancing solo would seem plenty for such a display? That's what lots of animals do. But none of them synchronise it.
- thatcat 7y agoYea those are good points. I'm not sure - I would bet the answer is cultural rather than genetic though. Hearing and group coordination may be really important in persistence hunting or maybe to indicate social acceptance. There are a lot of interesting theories in evolutionary biology, but no good way to test them.
