From After Eden by Kirkpatrick Sale:
However, in the deepest sense we already *are* back. The Erectus way of life is in some sense encoded in our genes after 1.8 million years, and we have more or less the same genome that the first Sapiens possessed 200,000 years ago; and just as we have the same grasping hands and color vision, so too we have the same brains and psyches, and they can be used to perceive the world the same way. As Carl Jung once said, "Every human being has a two-million-year-old man within himself, and if he loses contact with that two-million-year-old self, he loses his real roots."
