Hunter-Gatherer Childhoods: Evolutionary, Developmental, and Cultural Perspectives

Abstract

In the vast anthropological literature devoted to hunter-gatherer societies,surprisingly little attention has been paid to the place of hunter-gathererchildren. Children often represent 40 percent of hunter-gatherer populations,thus nearly half the population is omitted from most hunter-gathererethnographies and research. This volume is designed to bridge the gap in ourunderstanding of the daily lives, knowledge, and development of hunter-gatherer children.
