Some hold a rosy view of the simpler, supposedly more placid lives of tribal hunter-gatherers relative to our own. But examination of skeletons found at archaeological sites suggests that as many as 15% of prehistoric humans met a violent death at the hands of another person.
许多人会对这个观点有所怀疑。 有些人认为从前那种男打猎女采果的生活更简单也似乎更平和,也与自己当前的生活相近。 但通过检测那些从考古遗址发掘出来的骨骼,我们发现有15%的史前人类是死于他人的暴力打击之下的(相比之下在20世纪上半叶,两次世界大战在欧洲导致的死亡率还不足3 % 。 )
