Came across this in the 'related' section during my searches on YouTube (it was uploaded only 5 days ago) and I decided to give it a watch.
I found what was said to be interesting and so decided to share it.


Hope you enjoy it and find it informative. Also, because I'm aware of how passionate some people are regarding disabilities and disabled people along with the fact that I've posted this thread in the "Off Topic" section, I'd like to ask that any comments you write leave politics out of them.
If you want to talk about Disability in politics, make a thread in the Politics section.
 
I would imagine physical disabilities in a pre-historical society would most likely result in the person's death or decline. I could imagine aspergers or autism would hardly matter much in a hunter-gatherer society so long as the person is able to perform the role assigned to him. Certainly being socially awkward would take a backseat to being able to competently perform your job function.
