Abstract

Credible signaling may have provided a selection pressure for producing and discriminating increasingly elaborate protomusical signals. But, why evolve them to have hierarchical structure? We argue that the hierarchality of tonality and meter is a byproduct of domain-general mechanisms evolved for reasons other than credible signaling.
