Counting Cavemen
ByCarl Zimmer reports:
Despite the late appearance of higher mathematics, there is growing evidence that numbers are not really a recent invention - not even remotely. Cantlon and others are showing that our species seems to have an innate skill for math, a skill that may have been shared by our ancestors going back least 30 million years.
