"Anarcho-socialism", as a macro structure for society, can only be protected through force and therefore proponents are statists by practical necessity.

Any number of ancient stateless tribes were essentially anarcho-socialist, i.e. there was no state, there was private property in personal goods, but collective ownership of most of the means of production, such as the land itself.

Boro, im not sure what ancient tribes you are referring to but the only ones I know of relied on an extremely heirarchial society.

Up until very recently I think the !Kung society in Botswana would qualify for this, they had pretty much no hierarchical structure and were basically anarcho-socialists or whatever label you want to use.
