Summary/Abstract: Homo Sapiens (HS) started emerging around 300,000 BP. HS, a long-distance fast bipedal runner had a29-year life expectancy. The ensuing physiological mutations caused the birth of long-dependentchildren. Their side-effect was enhanced vocal articulation. Linguistic phylogeny produced language withthree time-ordered articulations: 1- rotation vowels-consonants into roots; 2- space- and timecategorization of roots into stems; 3- functional and temporal specifications of stems into fronds. Womenhenceforth developed as spiritual members in their communities, hereinafter their place in the productionof symbolic cave and mobiliary art. The spiritual dimension of such symbolism must heavily be centeredon women. Around 45,000 BCE all over the world, HS communities who had migrated out of BlackAfrica between 250,000 and 70,000 BP developed women-centered symbolism for the first time ondurable media, though male-centered hunting weapons and tools had been produced even by previousHominins.
