Chapter 14 provides an account of the creation of the first human couple, Mašyā and Mašyāne. The chapter also provides a genealogy of their offspring, the progenitors of the races of mankind as well as of monstrous and mythical peoples. Two additional sections focus on “others”: women and monkeys and bears.

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
