摘要

摘要:虽然创新通过社会学习在动物中传播,但动物文化仍然保持简单,没有随着时间的推移而增加复杂性。相反,人类文化是不断发展的,在复杂性和多样性方面是无与伦比的。为什么只有人类文化是累积性的,这一直是争论的主题,但最普遍的说法是动物缺乏高保真的传播和复杂的创新。这篇文章探讨了两个因素是如何帮助人类克服这些限制的:首先,我们从类人猿祖先那里继承了一个很大的大脑;第二,我们对广泛的异母照顾的依赖,与其他合作繁殖的物种进化趋同。我们用合作繁殖普通狨猴(Callithrix jacchus)的最新证据支持了这一观点,表明在解决问题和向下一代传递信息时,合作的动机可以胜过智力。

Cumulative Culture
Abstract: Although the spread of innovations through social learning is well documented in animals, resulting animal cultures have remained simple without an increase in complexity over time. Human culture, in contrast, evolves constantly and is unparalleled in terms of complexity and diversity. Why only human culture is cumulative is the subject of ongoing debates, but the most prevalent suggestions are that animals lack high-fidelity transmission and complex innovations. This article examines how the combination of two factors may have helped humans overcome these limitations: first, our having a big brain, inherited from our great-ape-like ancestors; second, our reliance on extensive allomaternal care that evolved convergently with other cooperatively breeding species. We provide support for this suggestion with recent evidence from cooperatively breeding common marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus), showing that motivation for cooperation can trump intelligence when it comes to solving problems and information transmission to the next generation.
