gimbutas argued (i think convincingly.) that patriarchy came not from agriculture but from nomadism, and i think it's easy to see the conclusions of it in modern society, with the differences in morality that assert themselves depending on how we order our food sources. but, i don't think she presented an opinion on what came before agriculture.

it's an interesting topic, beyond the question of what is driving the evolution of our decrease in body hair.
