cril-279	Stebbins, Jeff R.	The Evolution of Evolutionary Linguistics	2007	20	.pdf	application/pdf	8679	497	53	It appears that the topic re-emerged a century later after Bickerton’s discussion of “proto-language” in his 1981 Roots of Language, but it could also be that interest in language evolution increased after comments in John Lyons’ widely-used two-volume Semantics, wherein he wrote, The attitude of most linguists to evolutionary theories of the origin of language tends to be one of agnosticism. Iain Davidson, finally, includes a table which summarizes several theories about connections between language evolution and archaeological measurements of skeletal indicators for hominid brains, spinal cords, hypoglossal canals, hyoids and vocal passages (2003:145).	cache/cril-279.pdf	txt/cril-279.txt
