No far more complex things going on of course. But then again I totally don't believe in this theory anyway.
Or could it be that the hormone cycle is a consequence of position in the saeculum? Could it be a feedback mechanism?

Sometimes we confuse cause and effect.
Hormones affect how individuals and groups act, react and assess the environment. Hormone levels are there when societal events happen, and they define the response. I totally understand the way of thinking that hormone levels might only react to the environment, and that has transgenerational consequences, but on a generational level this seems highly unlikely to happen for all mammal cycle.
