I think you don't have to refresh us how *you* assume the paleolithic
era to have been.
On which facts do you base your view?
Are you tending to consider extinct species which are not in the
line of our anchestry too (like neanderthals)?

My own approach to the spirit of the Hunter-Gatherer is different to
neanderthin. If fact I'm not interested in the 20000 years when (some)
humans in europe experienced a meat/fat based nutrition. Others may do.

And I consider all timeperiods in our line of anchestors as important.
Neolithicum, mesolithicom, paleolithicum and the eons before.
The more important the closer to today or the longer the period.
