“Emergence of Society” Prehistory Neanderthal Ur Sumer Indus Ankor Celt China
TRANSLATE Arabic Chinese French German Greek Indonesian Italian Hindi Japanese Korean Swedish Portuguese Russian Spanish The Emergence of Society: a Prehistory of the Establishment by John E. Pfeiffer. DESCRIPTION: Hardcover: 512 pages. Publisher: McGraw-Hill Book Company; 1977) ISBN: 0070497591. The Emergence of Society” Sequel to John Pfeiffer’s successful book, The Emergence of Man” moves through the last hundred centuries before recorded history began, and across every continent, to report some of the greatest detective work of modern times– the search for clues to human beginnings, the mysteries of the founding of society. It is a rich and exciting panorama of how we became what we are. It is the biography of the human creature. Teams of young archaeologists and anthropologists, most in their twenties and thirties, are searching for ... morethe evidence on the constantly opening frontiers of the human past. This book is the dramatic story of what they have found and are still to find. It is the first popular account of the rise of the“Establishment” of power structures and hierarchies; wealth, poverty, and slavery; social class, the elites, and sexism; agriculture, cities, and states; art and music, propaganda and tradition; kings and gods– and how each of these served the others. Pfeiffer offers convincing proof that many recent polemics about human origins like“The Territorial Imperative” and“The Naked Ape” are superficial and simplistic. He demonstrates that practices like sexism did not exist in“primitive” man but developed with“civilization” And may now– like social class– be anachronistic. On the basis of recent discoveries he discards as myths the old view that culture began in a“Cradle of Civilization” in the Near East or in China, and that other peoples were savages. Digging in Southeast Asia he has uncovered art that predates the ancient Chinese civilization. Hawaii had an early state resembling those in the Near East. The“barbaric” Celts build cities long before the touted Romans. Urb

(4) Aterian (Neanderthal) Early Man Points, Prehistoric African Arrowheads
4) ATERIAN EARLY MAN POINTS. The Aterian industry was a type of stone tool manufacturing developed around the Atlas Region of the Northern Sa hara Desert of Africa. It dates back to the Middle Stone Age(Middle Paleolithic) and was a development of the Mousterian culture. Tools and weapons of the Aterian culture date back 30.000- 80,000 years and more. Aterian tool technology was used from Africa to Europe by both Cro Magnon Man and Neanderthals! Crude stone tools and weapons were made and used much further back in time. But the Aterian was the first to develop a stemmed point that could be used as a projectile, as a dart, spear or arrow point. These fascinating ancient weapons ar e quite rare and represent a milestone in early human development. These pieces are 1.5" to 1.75" long and clearly show the stem designed for mounting ... moreto a shaft. As you see in the photos. They have some minor ancient damage from thousands of years ago, which is not uncommon with this type of point. Otherwise they are in very good condition and have a rich ancient patina that only countless eons of exposure to the elements can produce. These are great prehistoric collectible artifacts.

long and beautiful neanderthal backed scraper Mousterian ca. 50 000BC
The Neandertal was named after theologian Joachim Neander. Who lived nearby in Düsseldorf in the late 17th century. Neander" is a classicized form of the common German surname Neumann.

From the period called"Mousterian" 150 000- 40 000 b.c. tools made of stone. Settlement sites and some parts of human skulls were found. Evidence for hunters and collectors in this period was found in Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg and other parts of Germany. Neanderthals are thought to have used tools of the Mousterian class.

EUROPEAN STONE AGE ARTIFACTS BY PALATINA AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEED Description of the Homo Neanderthalensis- the Neanderthal( Neandertal) man from the Mousterian phase about 40.000- 60.000 years ago. It is a large core like hand ax with specially treatred cutting edge! The Mousterian industry appeared around 200.000 years ago and persisted until about 40,000 years ago, in much the same areas of Europe, the Near East and Africa where Acheulean tools appear. In Europe these tools are most closely associated with Homo neanderthalensis, but elsewhere were made by both Neanderthals and early Homo sapiens. Mousterian tools required a preliminary shaping of the stone core from which the actual blade is struck off. The toolmakers either shaped a rock into a rounded surface before striking off the raised area as a wedge shaped flake(see photo at left) ... moreor they shaped the core as a long prism of stone before striking off triangular flakes from its length, like slices from a baguette. Because Mousterian tools were conceived as refinements on a few distinct core shapes, the whole process of making tools had standardized into explicit stages(basic core stone, rough blank, refined final tool) Variations in tool shapes could be produced by changes in the procedures at any stage. A consistent manufacturing goal was to increase as much as possible the cutting area on each blade. Though this made the toolmaking process more labor intensive, it also meant the edges of the tools could be reshaped or sharpened as they dulled, so that each tool lasted longer. The whole toolmaking industry had adapted to get the maximum utility from the labor invested at each step. Tool forms in the Mousterian industry display a wide range of specialized shapes. Cutting tools include notched flakes, denticulate(serrated) flakes, and flake blades similar to Upper Paleolithic tools. Points appear that seem designed for use in spears or lances, some including a tang or stub at the base that allowed the point to be tied into the notched end of a s

But many are also made from a large flake. Hand axes made from flakes first appeared at the start of the Achelean period and became more common with time. Manufacturing a hand axe ... morefrom a flake is actually easier than from a pebble, it is also quicker as flakes are more likely to be closer to the desired shape. This allows easier manipulation and fewer knaps are required to finish the tool, it is also easier to obtain straight edges. When analysing a hand axe made from a flake it should be remembered that its shape was predetermined(by use of the Levallois technique or Kombewa technique or similar) Notwithstanding this it is necessary to note tools characteristics: type of flake, heel, knap direction.
