Can you write a page an half for each section, answering the specific requirements. attached are the required references, you can also use outside references if they don’t contradict with these given. So total 3 pages, one page and half for first question and one page and half for the second question.
Section 4
a. One of the interesting questions about the past (at least to me!) is the formal disposal of the dead. Please trace this process beginning in the Lower Paleolithic and continuing through the Middle and Upper Paleolithic. What is the earliest evidence we have for intentional burial? Is it convincing or could it mean something else?How does this differ compared to the Middle Paleolithic? Are there significant differences between the burials of Neandertals and those of anatomically modern humans in the same period? Are the burials in the Upper Paleolithic significantly different from those of Neandertals or from those of other earlier hominins (including Homo sapiens sapiens)? Why do you think the evidence looks the way it does? Does it mean there are differences in terms of actual behavior, and if so, why did it change over time? You should describe at least ONE actual site for each period as you discuss it.
Section 5
a. What do we know about life in the Lower Paleolithic? What kinds of hominins lived during this period, what do their sites look like, and how did they get food? How is this different from what we know about early Homo sapiens sapiens? What sorts of things do we see in the Upper Paleolithic that we don’t see in the Lower Paleolithic? You can include some consideration of symbolic and/or ritual aspects in your answer here but I’m mostly asking about other aspects of life in these periods. Please be sure to include descriptions of at least one specific site form each period in your discussion.
