>self-aware consiousness as we know it is a relatively recent phenomenon,

Jaynes puts it somewhere within recorded history, practically....

What then do we make of cave drawings? The Venus statuettes? Ceremonial
burials?

Although Jaynes still fascinates me, there's something about Neanderthal
that fascinates me too....

And I'm not unconvinced octopi aren't somewhat self-obsessed....
