A non human species of homo nadeli more than 250,000 years old is found buried with crosses and triangular symbols.
Russel Brand asks “Does consciousness proceed intelligence?”
I would have posted this question on inner space if not for the real mystery of how hominids… and birds, (jays) and pachyderms (elephants)… exhibit a natural evolutionary adaptation towards burying their dead, play behavior well into adulthood and traits that clearly demonstrate a higher sensory perception of shared consciousness.
In other words, consciousness is a living force of nature that we living creatures are fortunate to adapt enough self awareness to perceive it.
I am not in the mind of a nature vs nurture, but more of a nature, nurture and beyond mentality where a shared microbiology from within and through our bodies, the electromagnetic generation from the core of our planet to the surface of the sun, psychadelics, fungi, and all living things create the macrobiome we know as our consciousness.
Paleo anthropologist Dr Lee Berger in his Indiana Jones hat on CNN hangs his hat on a lack of “human exceptionalism.” Ignoring the fact that just because a hominid brain is small doesn’t mean it hasn’t developed enough folds for higher consciousness. The argument misses the bigger mystery of the living biodiversity of self awareness and consciousness that transcends the human experience. We’re going to have to look at whales, elephants and blue jays in a different light, where they are peers in highly adapted self awareness. And that offends the ego. Which is why we feel rightly that we already knew about our ancient hominid cousins and that language and self awareness is far older than we’ve been told… because our shared consciousness tells us so.
