He’s a fraud. Not everyone who challenges the established ideas of a field are correct. Everett is no Galileo. Everett is no Copernicus. Everett is no enlightened thinker. Please do not mistake him for one. His claims have been disproved numerous times. His work is dangerous to the field of linguistics since it is so unsound yet so popular.

I’ve listened to several of his lectures now and he has some extremely interesting, and even highly attractive, ideas. I do feel though that he makes some assumptive leaps and, even if this is just his lecture style, at times does not adequately tie ideas together in a convincing or meaningful fashion. I’ve also heard him make a few false linguistic assertions like Korean is a tonal language and Riau Indonesian is a language of Papua New Guinea. But his main thesis and especially arguments in regards to h erectus are worthwhile for anyone interested in the topic.

Arrived here after watching my first Daniel Everett talk on Homo Erectus. Fascinating man. Fascinating subject. Thanks.

It is very fascinating to know that homo erectus was so smart creature and the presentation was brilliant and convincing. Anthropology and human evolution is very interesting science. One of my favourite topics is formal languages, but it is very interesting to know more about early human languages as well.

Wonderfully produced. Daniel... amazing work. Thank you so much.

I don't see any reason that the long-term acquisition of language could not have reduced/resolved to universal grammar by a later selection filter. It is very common-sensical to expect that this process, considered in its entirety, is not at all recent.

36:45 the Ford Model assuredly was not a 'Protocar" since the first "Auto-Mobile" called Fardier was invented 143 years earlier by French scientist Nicolas Cugnot and drove on the streets of Paris in 1765 the tin Lizzy came 1908. There were a lot of cars driving through Europe and the US by that time 😂

Language has brought us to the brink of extinction by creating the ego which is the delusory notion that we are individuals occupying a body separate and different from all other bodies and things. All the pain and suffering we endure is caused by language including the fear of death.

You are not right. Piraha do not fear death. They do not have a creation myth, religion, gods - so they have nothing to be afraid of.

Recursion is linguistic fractal

How much of our language, our singing, come from animals and birds hundreds of thousands of years ago?

52:25 neil armstrong "one small step for man" vs "one small step for a man" probably wasn't a mistake, doesn't fit the overall 5 word phrase structure, which would make it sound less poetic one - one small - giant step - leap for - for a - ? man - mankind although, the omittion of "a" changes the meaning from "one man's actions versus humanity's achievements" to "humanity (in a literal sense) vs humanity's achievements" I doubt it was intentional, but it works perfectly well.

Everett's conclusion about long-distance sea-travel is unwarranted, there are no Erectus communities in Hawaii. What it suggests is that the Islands could be reached by means other than boat for short periods, either through a bridge of silt or coral, or whatever, or floating logs. It is not reasonable to assume such a technological sophistication, as boat-making requires wooden joints and pitch water-proofing, both of which would imply that you can design a nail, or a comb, which Erectus couldn't do.

apparently the speaker is in fact a Christian Darwinist... can we have another video of him explaining that please?

I don't know why he totally ignores the Freud, Levy Strauss, structuralist path that suggests symbols appeared with the necessity to preserve kinship and avoid incest. In that interpretation the first real symbol was the name assigned by the master of the primitive tribe to an individual so that the individual or family can call the master by their name when kinship relations were threatened. Also the example he gave of naming a particle by using a name from a literary piece was beyond pathetic since the path that led the researcher to discover the particle was possible only by structured thoughts (logos), thus by language. Also he seems to confuse symbols which are totally arbitrary with sophisticated signs which are just refinements of an index to make it more useful. The fact that an erectus sculpted that iconic image of a woman he was obsessed with doesn't make that piece of art - a symbol - he certainly did not call it "fertility" or "woman" -))) It can be argued that erectus survived all evolutionary bottlenecks (obstacles towards forming a large sophisticated society) and made it all the way to sapiens by avoiding incest and preserving kinship thus regulating disease and unnecessary violence.

Relative quantity is a form of quality. We use IQ to arbitrarily quantify quality.

He picked up a tool (the stick) to help learn their language.

Think about language is as he says it uses symbols to convey meaning but our minds when growing starts to believe the icon to be the real thing. So when we use the word tree to label a tree, over time we reduce the tree to the mere label of tree along with all the characteristics we may think of a tree. We no longer see the tree for what it is. I feel language has robbed us of reality, by reducing it to symbols for convenience/survival sake. This applies to us and and the beliefs of ourselves which is very destructive.

We native speakers of English don't sit well with taking instructions from non-native speakers of English on the finer points of expression in the English language. When Neil Armstrong spoke of the efforts it took to finally get his boots onto Lunar soil, he spoke like a person who was entirely at home within the English language, because he was. When he said, "That's one small step for man, ...", he did not mis-speak himself. He wasn't bragging about his own abilities as though to say, "That was easy." He was speaking as a person of the nineteen sixties, a time of focus on "Man" and "his achievements". The theme of "Man and His World" at Expo '67 in Montreal had just finished. The music of the day would have us believe that the "age of Aquarius" was a thing. The work of getting down the ladder was well within the capability of the animal that he was, but he was acknowledging that the accomplishment of getting to do the activity he was engaged in was a revolutionary moment for the species as a whole.

The first language could not leave a rosetta stone. Conceptual breakdown may be communicated through language and rectified through language. Language doesn't break down. Society may be considered a democratic repository of individual culture - the majority prevail. Before sign language there must have been body language. Thought is like God - the beginning and the end. Language has to fit in between. Humour enables us to laugh off the unpleasant. The Pitaha are aware that sex organs should be proportional. I don't think they consider exaggerating funny. However, I can't figure how they related it to the Jesus narrative.

Wow! what are really mendacious statement for a Linguist to make., Such deceptive language. "Most artifacts from around the world "are" stolen and put in the "British" Museum. Like there are no other long established museums in the world with the same complicated legacy haha Just those Brits over there huh? - just for a moment there, trying to "be less white"? (as Coca Cola mind bogglingly insisted.) No wonder his voice dipped as he microfroze but then mumbled on anyway, sad identity crisis right there. "Are?" (Currently stealing) The current looting in Syria ( Greek and Roman artifacts preferrred so they can be passed off as, not from a war zone) is l00% disappearing into that world heritage black hole, private collections, undocumented because they are stolen and therefore lost to the world forever. You been in the Kabul Museum lately? (Loaded question of course) Currently what little of the collections is left is guarded by armed Taliban - so good luck! Over 20 years most of the precious metal artifacts were looted, and either melted down! or sold intact to private buyers, (Many of them were unique pieces, gift exchanges between Royalty of many ancient kingdoms). Anything say, neolithic and say made of clay or stone or bone, was presumed as worthless and thrown on a dung heap, all that prehistory stolen and destroyed, all that artisanship in private hands in safety deposit boxes, gone forever. poor Afghan people, and impoverished world. ( Bamiyan Statues? Too big to steal Blown up!) Emotionally, museum collections are a hot topic for every one. (Those Elgin Marbles need to have plaster copies made, then they need to go, asap) But, in a world where the top billionaires have increased their wealth tenfold in the last 2 years, and are looking to sink some into one offs - irreplaceables (after buying up most of our land) and where cartels use antiquities as collateral on drug deals, we need to think long and hard about consequences. And call out the "Ooh but l'm different, l'm one the good guys " spinelessness. .
