A new era in the study of global history is born but it needs to be nurtured Open
In this issue, Slingerland et al. criticize the quality of the data from Seshat: Global History Databank utilized in our Nature paper entitled “Complex Societies Precede Moralizing Gods throughout World History”. Their critique centres aro…

Reply to Beheim et al.: Reanalyses confirm robustness of original analyses Open
As we noted prominently, our initially uploaded preprint was a "non-peer-reviewed draft subject to revision". We have now recognized and corrected an important error in our data and code (details at https://github.com/pesavage/moralizing-g…
