Scope and content
File consists of Jerome Barkow's notes for his What Does Local/Indigenous Knowledge Tell Us About Human Evolution and Psychology presentation. The notes talk about Barkow's studying of the Bugis people of Indonesia, in two of their villages, and how though their cuisine is exquisite, their knowledge of nutrition and child nutrition was fairly poor. The reason for this is because the Bugis competed with each other in terms of which family held the best tasting and most varied meals, not which meals were more nutritious. For Barkow, humans operate with social intelligence, that only deal with problems when there's a competition around solving them.
