11 Sirionó population: Holmberg 1969
:12 (fewer than 150 during his fieldwork). Rydén (1941
:21) estimated 6,000-10,000 in the late 1920s, presumably a pre-epidemic count. Today there are 600-2,000 (Balée 1999; Townsend 1996
:22). Stearman(1986
:8) estimated 3,000-6,000.

12 Stearman returns, bottleneck, abuse by army and ranchers, Holmberg’s fail ure to grasp: Stearman 1984; Stearman 1987; author’s interviews, Balée, Erickson, Langstroth. Holmberg(1969
:8-9) noted the incidence of clubfoot and ear marks, but made little of it.

12 Migration of Sirionó: Interviews, Balée; Barry 1977; Priest 1980; Pärssinen 2003. A Spanish account from 1636 suggests that they had arrived only a few decades before (Métraux 1942
:97), but this is not widely accepted.

17 Indians without history
:“In North America, whites are the bearers of environmental original sin, because whites alone are recognized as laboring. But whites are thus also, by the same token, the only real bearers of history. This is why our flattery … of ‘simpler’ peoples is an act of such immense condescension. For in a modern world defined by change, whites are portrayed as the only beings who make a difference” (White 1995
:175). The phrase“people without history”was popularized in an ironic sense in Wolf 1997.

21 新石器革命及农业的发明:实例见于Lev-Yadun, Gopher, and Abbo 2000; Mithen 2004。简言之,在公元前12500年左右的巴勒斯坦,人类通过采集与照料作物,组成了小型的永久性村落。真正意义上的农业直到两千年后才在土耳其南部出现,其原因至今仍有争论。到了公元前4000年左右,这些村落发展成了等级划分的城镇或城市。早期的文字至少可以追溯到公元前3000年。五个世纪以后,文字系统得到了统一,乌鲁克城的人口也达到了四万之众。

21 “人类进程”:Wright 2005
:45。最早发展农业的新月沃地为古埃及、希腊、印度及美索不达米亚等地后来的文明奠定了基础。中国显然是独立发明了农耕技术,但其数学、文字、艺术和诸多其它领域的成就都借鉴了新月沃地的先例。然而围绕最后这种说法,学界产生了激烈的辩论。一些人相信,中国文明正如秘鲁与中美洲一样,独立于苏美尔。
