Why did the hunter-gatherers travel from place to place? In what ways are these similar to/different from the reasons for which we travel today?
उत्तर
Hunter-gatherers travelled from place to place for four basic reasons which are as follows: (also see flow-learning).
- If they stayed at one place for a long time, they would have eaten up all the available plant and animal resources. Therefore, they went to another place for more food.
- Animals move from place to place. Humans followed them as they hunted them.
- Plants and trees bear fruit in different seasons. So when the season changed, people moved to another place.
- In search of water, people travelled from place to place. Water is necessary for survival.
However, nowadays we travel for different purposes, like:
- Education. We travel to schools.
- Work. We travel to work.
- Business. People travel from place to place for business purposes.
- Entertainment. We travel from one place to another to amuse and entertain ourselves, like going to a circus, a zoo or sightseeing.
