  Bifacial = torpedo bait trap?         


Author: nickname

I've read that one way Innuits reduced competition from wolves was by
inserting a sharp blade into a chunk of meat, swallowed it would tear
up the stomach and kill it.

Could a hand axe or sharp blade be put in a fish or meat bait at
waterside to kill a lion, sabercat, leopard, tiger, crocodile?

Since unlike hyenas they don't crack and eat the bones, they may be
susceptible to something sharp lodging in the GI tract.

Crocs (and seals and other aquatic animals) swallow rounded stones for
ballast. Louis Leakey found near-sphere pebbles ("bolas") among masses
of handaxes in the Rift valley at Olorgesailie, according to Rick
Potts. Thanks to Lee Olson for bringing Potts article to my attention.

Fishermen fishing for catfish in some areas attach chicken or other
meat materials wrapped around a stick sharpened at both ends, which
lodges in the pharyngeal-GI tract of the fish.

Tyranosaurus Rex didn't chew, it tore flesh into chunks, often tossing
them into the air and swallowing whole, similar to how Orcas toss baby
seals and cats toss mice. Crocs and big cats have their own methods,
but have some resemblance to this style of carnivory.

It flipped suddenly, in one individual and one generation.

  Birth of Language from 100,000 years ago? Or Earlier?

Abbreviations: myo = million years old; tya = thousand years ago

http://www.beforebc.de/all_america/900_america/02-16-800-00-21.html
(over 200 web pages at www.BeforeBC.de ; archeology related to
Africana studies):

[A] Bushman Mother Language from 100,000 years ago? Earlier?

In Click Languages, an Echo of the Tongues of the Ancients, Nicholas
Wade of the New York Times said that that ancient African language
over 90 tyo may contain the seeds found in all future languages. (NYT,
March 18, 2003). Continuing in the same vein, in Current Biology (also
18 March 2003) Stanford scientists Alec Knight, Peter Underhill, and
Merritt Ruhlen, wrote that key African Click Languages were spoken by
Bushmen who separated over 100 tya.

It's the preponderance of the evidence that indicates such. And there is no
evidence that is inconsistent with hominids being highly communal and highly
territorialistic. The best evidence of all is modern humans.
