About Malthusianism - England breaks out:

Industrial growth in England began - after 1700
But England overcame the Malthus barrier earlier - in the 1650s.

The reason is a successful combination of factors:
1. The plague killed almost half of the population - earlier and created a head start:
- Productivity grew with the outflow of the population to the fleet and industry, and at the same time
- Yield growth kept pace with population growth.
2. Britain defeated Spain and profited from monopoly trade and robbery.
The money earned in trade was invested for a long time, incl . in innovation.
3. The colonies sucked away the population and reduced its Malthusian growth.
The population moved to the colony due to the "Geographical Revolution" -
Previously, military superiority over neighbors was insignificant - peoples could not expand dramatically at the expense of their neighbors.
Now the cheapening of sea transport has made neighbors - the natives.
The "Geographical Revolution" also occurred among the Mongols, but the Mongols did not develop the rest, industrial factors.
4. Institute for the protection of private property - all profits were not confiscated by the king and other robbers, but went incl . for innovation.
Joan of Arc kicked Britain out and diverted Britain's investment into more cost-effective maritime piracy.
Other Cultural factors – religious, etc.
The intelligence of the population was high enough to come up with new innovations for a long time. However, the reason for this was not only genetic, but again - cultural, incl . the growth of literacy and book printing.

Anthropogenesis - Theory of driving hunting - Mine:

Usually "theories" absolutize one, possibly important factor.
Here the driving hunt is offered only as an important factor of Anthropogenesis - at a certain stage of it.

Idea:

The human niche was - Driven hunting - running after prey until it was exhausted.
An example of the opposite niche is the cheetah.
Legs, sweat glands and other human physiology are focused specifically on long running.

Ideas:

1. When driving the hunt, the hunter had to be smarter than the prey. - The prey had an initiative and a choice - where to run, where to hide, and the hunter had to predict the intentions of the prey and save his strength at the same time.
2. Complicated collective Drive hunting.
The advantage over a pack of wolves in humans was their interaction during the hunt.
The idea is that with the complexity of the interaction, the growth of its efficiency outstripped the growth of energy costs for it.

Hunted - got squirrels - healthy adult males.
Women, children and old people were engaged in gathering.
That is, the Theory of Driven Hunting only clarifies the type of preferential hunting among hunter-gatherers and its role in the growth of their intelligence.

Naked H. _ ergaster :

H. ergaster consumed more meat than earlier australopithecines.
H. ergaster not only had to have the ability to run for endurance, but also had to be able to defend itself and the corpses of its prey.
H. ergaster may have been the earliest human species to have nearly hairless skin.
It is possible that the decline in the diversity of African carnivores about 1.5 million years ago can be explained by competition with carnivores hominins .
The jaws and teeth of H. ergaster are reduced compared to those of Australopithecus, suggesting a rejection of fibrous and hard-to-chew foods.
Possibly homo . ergaster was one of the first people to master fire control, which they could use for cooking.
Name Homo ergaster translates as " working man " - a reference to the more advanced tools used by this species .
…suggests that this man was capable of speech.

Long Run Niche:

Even an average runner will overtake the best race horse over long distances, and there is no other terrestrial species that can run 300 km without stopping - and for a person it is possible.
