  • Les Enfants de Caïn (en anglais African Genesis: A Personal Investigation into the Animal Origins and Nature of Man) est un essai de vulgarisation scientifique de Robert Ardrey, paru en 1961. Il émet l'hypothèse que l'humanité a évolué depuis le continent africain sur la base d'ancêtres carnivores et prédateurs, qui se sont distingués des singes par l'usage des armes. L'essai questionne l'origine de l'humanité, la nature humaine et ce qui la rend unique entre les espèces. Il fut lu passionnément et occasionna de nombreux débats. L'ouvrage est le premier de sa série sur la nature humaine, suivi par (1966), le Contrat social (1970), et l'Hypothèse chasseresse (1976). Il fut illustré par la femme d'Ardrey, l'actrice sud-africaine (née Grunewald).
