Bowlby's theory is evolutionary because, in his view attachment is a behavioural system that has evolved because of both its survival and reproductive value.
This base is where the child can always return to after having explored outside.
According to Bowlby, children have an innate drive to become attached to a caregiver because attachement has longterm benefits, similar to those of imprinting. Both of these ensure that the young stay close to the caregiver who will feed and protect them. This is why they are adaptive behaviours because they increase the likelihood of survival.
This is for the comfort of the child, here they can feel safe and not vulnerable. Nothing can threaten them whilst here.

This is the anxiety that appears when we are not with our caregivers.
This is because when we are with them we do not feel threatened but if they are not with us then we feel more vulnerable
