Ancient horse hunts challenge ideas of ‘modern’ human behavior An archaeological site in Germany suggests communal hunting and complex thinking emerged earlier in human evolution than once thought.

A great summary of recent research revealing that humans have hunted communally for hundreds of thousands of years. Beautiful artwork too - not AI! - by David Palumbo showing women & children engaged in the hunt too.
