摘要

砂砾与许多生物现象有关——它磨损牙齿,它折断牙齿,它推动牙齿进化,它引发复杂的人工操作——其中任何一个都可以被描述为进化人类学的中心话题。但什么是毅力?我们几乎不知道,因为我们倾向于把砂砾(它具有磨蚀性)的后果置于其形式特征之上,几乎忽略了关键的变量,如矿物成分、材料特性和颗粒几何形状(大小、角度),更不用说灵长类动物栖息地及其食物表面的自然变化了。很少有话题能引发如此多的争论,同时又引起如此冷淡的态度。我们的目标是照亮砂砾,用哲学的视角审视我们话语的本质,并呼吁人们注意到应该填补并融入我们对灵长类动物自然历史和进化的理解的巨大经验空白。

Grit and consequence

Grit is implicated in several biological phenomena—it wears teeth, it fractures teeth, it drives tooth evolution, it elicits complex manual manipulations—any one of which could be described as a central topic in evolutionary anthropology. But what is grit? We hardly know because we tend to privilege the consequences of grit (it is abrasive) over its formal features, all but ignoring crucial variables such as mineral composition, material properties, and particle geometry (size, angularity), not to mention natural variation in the habitats of primates and their food surfaces. Few topics have animated so much debate and invited such cool indifference at the same time. Our goal here is to shine a light on grit, to put a philosophical lens on the nature of our discourse, and to call attention to large empirical voids that should be filled and folded into our understanding of primate natural history and evolution.

期刊介绍: Evolutionary Anthropology is an authoritative review journal that focuses on issues of current interest in biological anthropology, paleoanthropology, archaeology, functional morphology, social biology, and bone biology — including dentition and osteology — as well as human biology, genetics, and ecology. In addition to lively, well-illustrated articles reviewing contemporary research efforts, this journal also publishes general news of relevant developments in the scientific, social, or political arenas. Reviews of noteworthy new books are also included, as are letters to the editor and listings of various conferences. The journal provides a valuable source of current information for classroom teaching and research activities in evolutionary anthropology.
