Foraging Societies

Number of Pages 7

7 pages in length. Cultural behavior represents the most identifying characteristics with regard to determining why certain populations perform certain activities in relation to their overall survival. That early societies had little choice but to adopt a life of foraging because of their inherent proximity to available foods coupled with the limited - and sometimes nonexistent - advancement in agricultural abilities illustrates how the act of foraging signified the predominant method by which such societies as Australian Aborigines, the !Kung San of Namibia, the Nimpkish of North America and the Amazonian Yanomamö survived, as well as the progression it represented with regard to the progression into horticulture. No bibliography.
