Not clear what the point of all that was.

They set up: "And cities—this is a critical point for Graeber and Wengrow—could function perfectly well without bosses and administrators." But trying to establish that from archeology is a stretch.

We see that situation today in countries in turmoil. It looks like early feudalism. Walled compounds, fortified houses, and other strong points to protect their inhabitants. Like really bad neighborhoods.

High population density anarchy does not look good.
