Archaeology provides explanations concerning cultural evolution and its manifestations in the Paleolithic. The beginnings of symbolic behavior and the human transformation of the environment are examined as societies evolved from small-scale, to agriculturally based and then into complex states, cities and empires. Worldwide comparison is emphasized.
