Graeber and Wengrow have a different interpretation than "post-apocalyptic". More like they underwent a successful revolution to overthrow their hierarchical society and create radically egalitarian societies instead

The early European colonists came across these groups and that's pretty much the origin of the myth that "the natural state of man" is this radically egalitarian society. In reality it's an explicitly political culture that came about as a reaction to their lived experiences with "civilization"

Rather than "post-apocalyptic" they can also be seen as "post-civilization"
