      Not quite. Humans evolved to exist in small hunter-gatherer groups, which I would not consider societies. Curiously, these were very egalitarian and people only worked for about 20 hours a week, and the varied lifestyle and diet was optimal for our health. It is really with society that all our problems started

      Edit: spelling and clarification

          Fair point. My mother tongues have slightly different definitions for their words for "society"
