Resum: | This article explores an explanation for the evolutionary origins of the computational system of the faculty of language based on current evo-devo thinking. Specifically, we argue that the Chomsky's "Hierarchy of computational complexity" can be interpreted as a developmental morphospace constraining the evolution of a discrete and finite set of computational phenotypes. One of these phenotypes corresponds to the system of computation associated with natural languages. We relate the evolution of the system with certain heterochronic adjustments of the human cerebral cortex in the recent evolutionary history of the species. |
