It seems to me that this sentence mixes different meanings of 
"evolution". Just because we have acquired knowledge and skills does not 
mean we have "evolved" in the sense I think it is used on this list. The 
neurological aspects of newborns may have evolved since paleolithic 
times, but we are not able to determine that.
