56dfbf01231d4119001abd7d | Hunter-gatherer | Some of the theorists who advocate this "revisionist" critique imply that, because the "pure hunter-gatherer" disappeared not long after colonial (or even agricultural) contact began, nothing meaningful can exist learned about prehistoric hunter-gatherers from studies of modern ones (Kelly, 24-29; see Wilmsen) | What type of hunter-gatherer has disappeared ? | {
