147. Ibid, 1970, p 144, has a graph plotting the leuel of scientific achieve-ment in both China and Europę from 300 BC to the third quarter of the tmentieth century AD. The Chinese curve shoms a gradual steady ascent, but the European curve shoms the decline mith the fali of Roman ciuilisation in the West to be followed by the steep slope of an exponential curve, gathering greater acceleration as an upmard surge after the late fifteenth century.

152. R.L.Carneiro, 1978, suggests warfarę has been the main mechanism of political euolution. His argument finds some corroboration in the hist-orical expenence of the early modern period; W.W.Rostom, 1975, p 104, for example makes this comment: "One cannot view the domestic economic policies of the major nations in early modern Europę without sensing the grip on their political life of the unrelenting pattern of struggle
within which they mere trapped....... Rulers spent their Limę morrying
about hom to stay in pomer as we11 as about war and diplomacy."

Shanidar, Iraq. The man had a deformed right arm and shoulder; the arm had been amputated below the elbow in 1 ife, and there was evidence to suggest he had auffered from an arthritic condition from birth. Since he survived to about 40 years of age he must haue received care and support from other members of his group; S.L.Washburn A C.S.Lancaster, 1967, pp 74-5, on caring for the sick in human communities.
