Riassunto

Long before the first temple was built, before the first prayer was whispered, and before the first god was given a name, there was a fragile species standing beneath the stars wondering, fearing, and searching for answers.

How did a creature born from evolution come to imagine immortality, create gods, and weave myths powerful enough to shape civilizations? Why does the human mind seek meaning in a universe that appears vast and indifferent?

The First Hypothesis: How Humans Invented Gods, Myths, and Meaning is an extraordinary journey across millions of years of human history, exploring the evolution of consciousness, the birth of imagination, the origins of religion, and the stories that became humanity's greatest creations.

Drawing upon anthropology, archaeology, psychology, neuroscience, history, and modern science, this book reveals that gods may not simply be beings humanity worshipped-but ideas humanity created to understand existence itself.

The echoes of those ancient questions still live within us today. As humanity stands on the threshold of creating artificial minds and reshaping life itself, a new question emerges:

If we once created gods, what new gods are we about to create?
