Hobbes describes this stage as homo hoinoni lupus. The holy book Artasastra, written by Knit tilya has a similar content. Kau tilya used fish life as a metaphor, and calls his theory as the fish law, to describe the state of nature as "the small fishes are eaten by the bigger one", to argue the state of nature.
