'When Eve Laughed: The origins of language'
"Why, out of 220 primate species, are we the only one which talks? Laughter, too, is unique to our species. Although different from language, collective, contagious laughter may have set the scene for words + grammar to evolve by establishing the necessary bonds of trust. In addition to the latest archaeological research, this talk will draw on hunter-gatherer studies to show how men learn to communicate with birds and beasts and how women use laughter as a levelling device."

LIVE in the Daryll Forde Room, 2nd Floor of the UCL Anthropology Dept, 14 Taviton St, London WC1H 0BW
