Hypothesis
Women are expected to have a role in hunting in the majority of hunter-gatherer communities.
Note
"Of the 63 different foraging societies, 50 (79%) of the groups had documentation on women hunting." Venkataraman et al (2024)'s critique to this result can be found here: http://192.168.10.248/documents/1518/hypotheses/5350.
