They then argued that with an increase in population density, the
likeliness of AHM-NT interbreeding decreases (Currata, Excoffierb, 2011). Non-human animals are biologically
inclined to breed ‘outside’ of their direct family because of the evolutionary
advantage the mix of gene pools will give their offspring. Humans, on the other
hand, tend to be ‘endogamous’: they prefer marrying within a specific ethnic,
religious, culture, etc group. With higher population density come more
opportunities for individuals to marry within their own ‘species’.
This is a paragraph I cut out of the essay for archaeology I'm currently writing. I was really excited to use the information I read in a paper but after reading over it a couple of times i realised this argument doesn't work in my favour, so I had to take it out :(
All writers and people who write know how hard it can be to have to cut a sentence, line, phrase or even word you were particularly happy with because it just doesn't fit with the story, the meter, or for one of a thousand other reasons. This is called Killing your Darlings.
I've always wanted to have an old shoebox with a little cardboard gravestone that says 'My Darlings', that I could put little slips of paper with the Darlings I've had to kill off, but I never got round to making one. I think this will do just as well. To be continued.
Because of the inherently male nature of
western colonialism, nearly all colonies struggled with gross discrepancy
between the amount of white men and the number of white women.
