Bartering old stone tools: When did communicative ability and conceptual structure begin to interact?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 February 2010
Abstract
Wilkins & Wakefield are clearly right to separate linguistic capacity from communicative ability, if only because other animal species have one without the other. But I question the abruptness of the demarcation they make between a period when hominids evolved enriched conceptual representation for other reasons entirely, and a subsequent later stage when language use became an adaptation.
