Abstract

In this commentary we advance Jagiello et al.'s proposal by zooming in on the possible evolutionary origins of the bifocal stance that may have enabled a major transition in human cultural evolution, arguing that the evolution of the bifocal stance was driven by an explosion in cultural complexity arising from cooperative foraging, which led to a feedback loop between the ritual and instrumental stances.
