- amanaplanacanal 4y agoThe Paleo folks point out that humans were hunter-gatherers for hundreds of thousands of years, and really have only had a few generations since the invention of agriculture. They then study the few remaining Hunter-gatherer societies as a model for how humans were evolved to live. I like the idea, but data is scarce, and humans are so adaptable it’s hard to make any firm statements.
