A new Arizona State University study argues that humanity’s rapid global dominance wasn’t driven primarily by biological evolution, but by culture. By comparing thousands of mammal species to human populations, researchers show that culturally transmitted knowledge—like tools, social norms and survival strategies—allowed humans to adapt to radically different environments far faster than genetics alone ever could, effectively compressing tens of millions of years of evolutionary change into just a few hundred thousand. The work reframes human success as a kind of “cultural radiation,” offering a quantitative lens on how shared knowledge, not just DNA, made us the planet’s most adaptable species.
