İNSAN VE PLIO-PLEISTOSEN'DE BESİN SAĞLAMA YÖNTEMLERİ
Öz
Since not a single common denominator exists (except that they all were nomadic scavangers-hunters-gatherers) that would cover all the prehistoric societies who had lived under diverse environmental conditions in different parts of the world during Plio-pleistocene for millions of years, it is impossible to reach to deffinite universal conclusions concerning the vital problem of how man had acquired his food and successfully survived this early phase of his biocultural development. Thus, one can only hint to a number of possibilities that may cover (undoubtedly not all but surely) most of the above mentioned societies- naimely that they lived in small groups, that (in gener- al) men were the hunters and women the gatherers, that reciprocity was an important factor in their economies, that they were composed of socially unstratified groups and that it is now highly debatable if they were in fact "the first affluent societies" as was claimed sometime ago.
