Building on my popular paper at Academia.edu, I have greatly expanded my ideas and outlined how a human sense-of-time and the beginning of language might have developed together. Based in part on linguist Daniel Everett's How Language Began, I map out six sequential human sense-of-time stages that dovetail with Everett's G1, G2 and G3 language stages. These stages start with Homo erectus and continue up to today and then into the future. This is a reprint of an article that I posted on my blog DeconstructingTime.
