The Archaeology of War
As I wrote before, some archaeologists argue that there is no evidence that war is inevitable for mankind. At the stage of food gathering mankind rarely killed each other.
War occurred only after the beginning of agriculture, settled lifestyle and the necessity of protecting the assets of one group against other groups.
So it is not "installed"within human being as a species, but it had begun with the socially-originated vice called "greed"-- the engine of modern capitalism.
Below is a very short "montage film" inspired by the words of an archaeologist Makoto Sahara, who devoted his later years for "archaeology of war".
