The Language of Paleolithic Man is a book written by Daniel Garrison Brinton in 1888. This book explores the language used by early humans during the Paleolithic era, which is believed to have occurred between 2.6 million and 10,000 years ago. Brinton delves into the origins of language and the ways in which it evolved over time, as well as the various forms of communication used by early humans, such as gestures, facial expressions, and body language. Additionally, Brinton examines the linguistic characteristics of various Paleolithic cultures, including the Cro-Magnons, Neanderthals, and other early human groups. He also explores the relationship between language and culture, and how language played a role in the development of human societies. Throughout the book, Brinton draws on a wide range of sources, including archaeological evidence, historical accounts, and linguistic analysis, to provide a comprehensive and detailed understanding of the language of Paleolithic man. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the origins of language and the history of human communication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
