Development of embodied capital: Diet composition, foraging skills, and botanical knowledge of forager children in the Congo Basin
The embodied capital theory states that the extended juvenile period has enabled human foragers to acquire the complex foraging skills and knowledge needed to obtain food. Yet we lack detailed data on how forager children develop these skills and knowledge. Here, we examine the seasonal diet composi...
