“An observer viewing life in the EEA(Environment of Evolutionary Adaptedness aka Pre-Agricultural) would easily have concluded that our species was destined to be irredeemably egalitarian. That someday the world would be divided into aristocrats and commoners, masters and slaves, billionaires and homeless beggars would’ve seemed wholly contrary to human nature as evidenced in the affairs of human society then on Earth.” ~ Marvin Harris, Head of Anthropology Dept at Columbia University vimeo/16928849
