This document contains a list of 14 articles related to human culture, behavior, and evolution. The articles discuss topics such as the earliest known hunting scene in pre-historic art from 71,000 years ago; how group size influences cultural complexity; evidence that sex equality can explain the unique social structure of hunter-gatherer bands; and how social learning is the main mode of human adaptation. The articles are from academic publications between 2010-2020 and provide insights into cultural transmission, cumulative culture, food taboos, extra-pair paternity, and cross-cultural variation in mate preferences.
