This paper, as the title suggests, is a review of contemporary theories on the origins of language and thought, and surveys the symbiotic dependency between these two important mental faculties. Moreover, this paper will attempt to further draw attention to the relation between primordial and present day language acquisition. The premise of this paper is that bad theories are not defeated by criticism; bad theories are replaced by better theories. This paper should, therefore, be viewed as a survey of what is plausible rather than a critique of what is not.
