15,000 years ago, when humans were foragers and hunters, what characterized daily life? What were humans eating, and where and how were they living? Explain THREE differences between the daily life and health of forager peoples and the daily life and health of agriculturalists.

i. 15,000 years ago, when humans were foragers and hunters, they did not had their homes built with bricks and cement like we have nowadays. Huts in the forest was their home. They used to roam around in forests in search of food. They used to kill birds and animals for their food because agriculture was unknown to them. They used to wrap leaves around then which served as a cloth to them. Their life was not easy like we have. They had to struggle even for their basic needs.

ii. 3 differences between forager people and agriculturists on their basis of the daily life and health are:

a. Foragers used to roam around in search of food for themselves but the agriculturists grow crops to sell and earn their living.

b. Foragers have more spare time than agriculturists.

c. Foragers had no knowledge about agriculture while agriculturists had detailed idea about the same.

1. 15,000 years ago the humans were still hunter-gatherers. Their daily lives were largely based around one thing, finding enough food to survive through the next few days. This means that they had to constantly be on the move, be it for hunting animals, or for finding rich places with eatable plants. There was lot of walking, running, and scouting involved every day. It was a lifestyle of ''living through the day''.

2. During this period of time, the diet of the humans was consisted of animals they hunted, fish, and plants. There were differences from region to region though, so the people that lived along the coastline based their diet on marine animals, the ones that were living in colder regions were eating mostly meat, while the ones living in forested areas or grasslands had combination of plants and meat. The lifestyle in general was moving from place to place, be it on a daily basis, weakly, or seasonally, depending on the conditions. Some of these people were making small shelters, some of which were retractable and they were moving them with them, while others were using caves.

3. There are many difference between the forager peoples and the agriculturalists. The foragers were nomads, thus they were moving very often from one place to another, while the agriculturalists were having a settled lifestyle. The nomads very often had bad injuries which were often fatal, usually because of hunting, while the agriculturalists had much better health because they had much safer lifestyle. The foragers were not able to produce their own food, but instead they were relying on mother nature, while the agriculturalists were producing their own food and had the food problem solved.
