Would they have known that something disappeared in the short time span that they observed? Wouldn't it have been more like a frog slowly boiling type of situations? Perhaps they would have made them extinct by hunting them but I think that happened much later. But I'm not sure at all. This is so fascinating. What are folks reading in that field that's not too dry, something like Sapiens?

Fascinating indeed! David Wengrow and David Graeber published the absolutely phenomenal The Dawn of Everything [0] which is a must read - though they ask the question (that I think I answer in my paper) "how did we 'get stuck' with hierarchical society proliferating from 10,000BC on?" The book Blood Relations[1] by Chris Knight is also fantastic here and I got started with my own research with Lionel Sims a British marxist [2] [0]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dawn_of_Everything https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dawn_of_Everything [1]https://blackbooksdotpub.files.wordpress.com/2021/10/blood-relations-chris-knight.pdf https://blackbooksdotpub.files.wordpress.com/2021/10/blood-r...
