A Landscape without Nonhuman Primates? The Case of the Barbary Macaque, Macaca sylvanus, (Linnaeus, 1758) and Its Interaction with Humans throughout Recorded Time
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. The Barbary Macaque or Barbary Ape, in History: Millenary Interconnections with Humans
2.1. Neolithic Period and Antiquity
2.2. Europe in the Middle Ages
2.3. Modern Period
This beast is called Koph by Jews and, when there are many, Kophim; the Chaldeans call it Kophim, and Aristotle pithecos. In the ancient Etruscan language, it was called Arimo; the noun Inarime refers to the Island of the Monkeys, a fortified island; the Moors call this monkey Bugio […], the Spaniards Mona, or Ximio, In Italy it is called Simia or Bertuccia, in France Singe, in Germany Aff, in England Ape, and in Flanders it is called Sime (De QDV: 226).
They live in the forest of Bugia, Stora and Cole [Ndr. Collo] … […]. They live in large companies in the forest of the Mount Atlas, near the sea, and they are so common at Stora, that the neighborhood are sometimes covered with them […]. They fed on pine-cones, soft nuts, Indian figs, melons, water melon, and on the vegetable the Arabs cultivate in their gardens. […] While they commit their thefts two or three of them are stationed upon the tops of the highest trees and rocks as sentinels and as soon as they perceive any one, or hear a noise, they emit a sharp cry, and the whole troop immediately runs away, carrying with them everything they can seize.
The natural sentiment which makes it to live in the society of its fellows, when in the enjoyment of liberty, induces it, in confinement to adopt such small animals as are given to it for companionship; it carries them everywhere about with it, embracing and hugging them most affectionately, and becoming furious at any attempt to take them from it. We are assured that these animals attend their young with a care and affection not to be surpassed by the tenderest mother, and that they bestow the greatest pains in keeping them clean and neat.
3. Recent and Contemporary Period
Two young shepherds, lost in an uninhabited quarter of Djurdjura and hungry, pleaded with such fervor God’s help, that He sent them a plate of couscous. But after having been satisfied with this divine dish and probably with minds obscured by the alcoholic nectar which accompanied the food, the two incautious decided to use the container that contained the couscous for a such use that the suddenly ruthless providence changed them into monkeys.(translated from Joleaud 1931, p. 125)
