Your last message calls for another remark (I am incorrigible, as you know it ) : you write:the sedentarisation has also allowed to develop the craft, the mutual aid, the collective and specialized work.
As groups practicing big game hunting, the entire lineage, very long, of pre-Neolithic hominids had to rely above all on unfailing solidarity (one of the consequences of which was the sharing of the catch among all) and perfect coordination of hunting tactics (quite risky!), hence certainly the evolution of language and in fine, association with wolves (domestication => dog).
I also think that increasing the specialization of tasks goes against mutual aid; last point, you use the word "work" which is a completely anachronistic concept for hunter-gatherers and should be used with great care in the case of the first farmer-herders, even if, in the latter case, it acquires significantly more substance.
To go in your direction (and that of the demiurgic initiative of Did!), the myth of the Garden of Eden retranscribes this passage from the era of abundance to that of pain: I obviously hope that this trend can be reversed a little!
I agree with you, do not talk about work, I was also about the change of lifestyle, we go from family to inter-family groups, so as you say communication need from where development, for the specialization, I was in the idea that family group there is need for versatility and with the grouping we can go to a certain specialization, which will evolve to the craft industry, but also to the trade
you are right to want to be precise
after the Garden of Eden, the garden of the Sloth, to each his own as Didier said, so Eden could have his own
I saw and reviewed a great report on the hanging gardens of Babylon, there is talk of water supply channels, well like Didier with its tanks and pipes, Didier should not be at his first reincarnation
