The study of world history has been revolutionized by the remarkable discovery of the so-called Axial Age, a term given to the data by the philosopher and theologian Karl Jaspers. This discovery is the result of the explosive growth of archaeology and historical research in the nineteenth century. The discovery of the Axial Age is a fitting accompaniment to the Age of Globalization, for it shows that global civilization is the result of something on a planetary scale: we see in the period in question a spectacular display of parallel synchronous emergentism, across the entire field of the Eurasian continent. This set of effects from Africa to China is evidence of something acting in a Gaian field, at the level of a planetary species. And that raises the question of the evolutionary as the suspected context for this prodigy of greater nature.
