Here is an interesting link on the subject of autism in hunter/gatherer

times:

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/06/110603122849.htm

The main point:

Some of the genes that contribute to autism may have been selected and

maintained because they created beneficial behaviors in a solitary

environment, amounting to an autism advantage.

Enjoy (or not),
