Simultaneously, that's when our faces went from looking like the skull on the left, to the one on the right. A group of researchers from Duke and the University of Utah are theorizing that the correlation is not coincidence - that, in fact, the changing shape of skulls signals a change in something else that would have made cooperation more likely: A drop in male testosterone levels.
