My Caveman DNA
How much caveman is left in you?
Our bodies still run on a good deal of the original hunter-gatherer blueprint. My Caveman DNA uses eight questions to diagnose how much of that primitive wiring is left in you, expressed as a caveman DNA figure from 1% to 99%.
What it asks
It asks about the points where primitive instinct breaks through modern life: your judgement when hungry, the tension of being dropped among strangers, how fast you register a danger signal, and how you choose between a reward now and a larger reward later.
Eight core questions measure the degree of that wiring, and a final question decides the variation of your type.
What you get
Eight caveman types, each with three variations, give 24 results. The Complete Primitive has instinct almost entirely intact. Waking Wild keeps instinct and reason both alive. The Honed Hunter has converted instinct into skill.
Further along the range, the types become steadily better optimised for city life. No verdict is passed on which end is better — each type simply performs well in a different environment.
Who it's for

Available in Korean, English and Japanese.
