Oo evolutionary forces acted upon the myths of ancient villages, causing them to evolve into "religion".

In the beginning, human ancestors were solitary nocturnal wandering hunters. The wo'th group behavior was undifferentiated herding in which groups of males and females came to gether for "safety in numbers". Next, gender specialization emerged, such that the males imposed order and hunted, while the females tended to the children, the elderly, and the males who returned from the hunt with game. (These ancient coalitions were economic communes with a single dinner pot, to exploit economies of scale in hunting, meal preparation, and food storage.) Next, gender and other roles were codified into myth, marking the beginning of "villages". Next, moral rules and incentives were codified into myth in order to prevent "free riding", marking the beginning of "religion".
