David Graeber and David Wengrow’s (2021) book, The Dawn of Everything, and our books, Prehistoric Myths in Modern Political Philosophy and the Prehistory of Private Property, are part of a growing body of literature debunking dubious beliefs about prehistoric, nonliterate, and stateless peoples. Prehistoric myths and paleofantasies are so common in academic literature, and empirical evidence is coming out so rapidly, that it could take decades of back-and-forth for common understanding to catch up. In that back-and-forth spirit, we compare our perspective to Graeber and Wengrow’s (G&W’s) and pose several questions about The Dawn of Everything.
