Tool Intelligence taps primatological and linguistic field research to draw an analogy between prelinguistic material cultures of nonhuman primates and natural human languages. Linguistics and cognitive science are given new incentives to search for cognitive homology in areas of extended problem awareness and manipulative intentionality.
