dc.descriptionAt this session of the Seminar and Lecture Series, Professor Michael L. Wilson, Associate Professor, Department of Anthropology and Department of Ecology, University of Minnesota, and Professor Ratna Ghoshal, School of Arts and Sciences, Ahmedabad University, discuss ‘Chimpanzee Vocal Communication And The Search For Language Origins’. The capacity for symbolic language makes humans distinct from other animals. As one of the two living species most closely related to humans, chimpanzees provide important comparative data for understanding language origins. The two experts address important questions: What can we learn about language evolution among humans by studying the chimpanzee communication patterns? When it comes to understanding the evolution of language, are human beings closer to primates like chimpanzees or collective foragers like honeybees?en_US
