> Dawn of everything ... one specific (anarchist) viewpoint in his work

Anarchism means without a ruler, and there is scarce if any evidence that migratory hunter-gather bands at the dawn of history had rulers in one class expropriating surplus from another class. We can look for historical, or pre-historical evidence, but we can also observe the few remaining migratory hunter-gather bands remaining in the Amazon and such that have not been killed off by mining companies.

Modern authors don't impose an anarchist viewpoint on such groups, this is how they lived, and still live.
