Mark Pagel's How language transformed humanity

Hi all,
I saw this video online and thought it related to our class. A known biologist, Mark Pagel, shares his theory about why humans came up with language. Mr. Pagel believes that language is a "piece of social technology" made for humans to cooperate. Our class teaches us how to communicate properly amongst each other, helping us to cooperate with others in a professional manner.
I found this video very interesting and hopefully you all do too!
