That was partly due to his upbringing: the camels and horses in the camp where he grew up were not interested in borders. Throughout his life, he remained committed to the nomadic values of the Kalmyk people.</p><p>'But, although Khlebnikov hated territorial borders, he loved the idea of borders in time. He did not want fences, customs posts and certainly not trenches (remember this is going on during World War I, when people were fighting for a few yards of squelching, blood-stained mud). But what about borders in time? When people sing together, they must all keep to the same beat and sing each note together. Synchronising the voice means being aware of borders in time. Once the whole planet is singing, the only borders will be in the dimension of time. Natural rhythms, such as human heartbeats, the sun, the moon and the tides, would be used to set up these borders. He considered it vital not to transgress borders in time - they were needed if the world’s inhabitants were to get on with one another. By contrast, borders in space were in his eyes just bloodshed and murder.'<br><a href="https://weeklyworker.co.uk/worker/1248/prophet-and-poet-of-russian-revolution/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">weeklyworker.co.uk/worker/1248</span><span class="invisible">/prophet-and-poet-of-russian-revolution/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/lunarchy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lunarchy</span></a><br><a href="https://c.im/tags/flourishingdiversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flourishingdiversity</span></a><br><a href="https://c.im/tags/HumanRevolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRevolution</span></a></p>

The most memorable lecture I took part in my whole working life at Uni of East London was together with a couple of Hadza guys teaching on the 2nd year 'Origins of culture' course. They took us through the extraordinary article by Marshall Sahlins from 1960 on 'Origins of Society'. Sahlins used some quite dodgy data to compare baboon behaviours with human hunter-gatherers. My Hadza friends Athumani and Abeli of course had much greater knowledge of baboons! They had plenty to say (in KiSwahili, I translated for the class) on similarities and differences. There are significant myths for the Hadza thinking of baboons as close relatives who took a different path. Between them, Sahlins -- his neat idea that the revolutionary switch was from sex organising society to society organising sex -- and the Hadza hunters were giving UEL students the best possible education on what made us human. If only I made a recording of that lecture that day (October 2004).</p><p>Western scientists led by expert of Hadza studies Brian Wood, are catching up!
