I am trying to think of ways humans "mark" their territories but cant think of anything at the moment.<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>

We build fences, we draw lines on a map creating borders.
As far as illegal cultures go - Graffiti is more or less about marking territory. You bomb (the slang word for taggin - tagging = writing your name on a wall/train) where you live. That's kindof marking. When you've got your tag all over the town, you're "all city", etc etc.

We have lots of ways. :)

I used to be into all that. I wouldn't say it's about territory, but fame. You're all city because of the fame your name gets from being everywhere.

EDIT: that adds to my social nature theory,
