Please explain the archaeological record of "man the hunter," as we understand it; including the adaptation to life using bipedalism (defining it), the sexual division of labor (and why it occurred). Please explain two types of bias that feminist anthropologists identified in the "Man the Hunter" theory of human evolution: ethnocentrism and androcentrism. Define these terms and explain why and how they are biased. How can these biases provide an inaccurate picture of the diversity of gender roles and relations in various prehistorical societies? However, if we concentrate on "Woman the Gatherer," would we experience similar problems as we did in concentrating on solely "Man the Hunter?" Explain what is meant by this.
