"Early Men and Women were equal size"

https://theconversation.com/did-prehistoric-women-hunt-new-research-suggests-so-149477
This talks about how cavewomen hunted probably equal to men. At a Neolithic hunter burial site they could identify 41% of the skeletons as women. Some I think they couldn't tell one way or the other.

Those articles are saying that the gender roles were roughly equal, not that there wasnt sexual dimorphism

Edit: those were very interesting articles, the sexual dimorphism issue aside.

The general consensus is that sexual dimorphism was more pronounced with early human ancestors, as it is for non-human primates and that its something that early humans lost over time, as opposed to developed recently as youve suggest.

I dont have a horse in this race and am quite prepared to admit Im wrong - it just goes against everything Ive read previously.
