Would be a nice plot twist, but do you habe any sources for your claim? If this is real I would like to know more

Check out "The Dawn of Everything" by Wengrow and Graeber

Different point of view on your “source”, which is a mass market paperback made to sell and be consumed, not for serious scientific inquiry.

What I find interesting about this article is that it critiques heavily about the first 200 pages, says almost nothing about the next 600, and then says the conclusion is unsatisfactory because it didn't quote the book the author wrote in 1991. It's transparently personal.

Academics write books. Get over it.
