UCTV - I think you missed including a video in the CARTA playlist. There's one from this event uploaded by you a few days ago that isn't in the CARTA playlist.

This was kind of an enlightening talk. Not only did Tim Weaver kind of point to non-adaptive kind of changes in the human skull, but kind of also included in his talk phrases that kind of pointed to some kind of strange developments kind of in the way some scientists kind of like to kind of speak these days, or these kind of days. Very kind of enlightening, if you can kind of make it through kind of the way he speaks.

What about the “sort of” verbal tick? It’s sort of amazing how sort of smoothly the term is obsessively sort of injected into every third sentence.

@gooner72 2 года назад

That's an irritating answer, kind of, but it's not the end of the World fella..... his talk wasn't perfect, but I think that he got most things right, he just needs to learn to speak publicly better.

@americalost5100 3 года назад

I bet some day it's discovered that the ability to produce vocalizations are not the key factor for developing language, but rather brain development. And that a certain kind of brain development without the ability to vocalize in certain precise ways would still lead to the development of language. Just not so-called "spoken" language as we experience it... (See beginning around 6:40...)

We had large scale migrations into Europe during the neolithic, so perhaps the change in jaw-bones is just a sign of population replacement.

I have a problem with trying to draw any conclusions based on skull data. We have so many recent finds of small brained hominids that have lived in our very recent past along side other hominin. We have no way of knowing how much interbreeding there was among them so any variation has multiple possible causes. DNA analysis pretty much trumps old school quantification of skull anatomy. You can pretty much throw out judging intelligence based on brain size, as well.

I will never understand where they get the idea that only humans are capable of speech when our speech capabilities is an adaptation to make speech simpler and easier. It didn't just occur one day that a human was born and said momma a few months later, earlier hominids had to be talking up a storm to create the vocal capacity we have today. Albeit their languages wouldn't be anything like ours is but simpler and more complicated. Simpler in the word variety but more complicated in the use of the fewer sounds they could make to say the words. If human intelligences with 100 years experience in speech was given a dogs vocal capabilities they could speak words just not what we would say or how we would say it.
