The Tribal-Wide Use of Processes in the Paleolithic Era

I have argued that the use of processes such as stone-tool technology in the Paleolithic era was critical for the development of behavioral modernity. In this article, I argue that the entire tribe used other processes as well, such as the location, harvesting, and preparation of food by women. And because of this, the step-by-step nature of processes became a point of reference that everyone could refer to, which eventually led to a full sense of linear time (time with a past, present, and future) unlike the immediate time of the other animals.
