TRUE

The village of Moon (as described) is an example of a society with a division of labor.

The ancient Greek philosopher Plato used a description similar to that shown here about the "village of Moon." In describing what was needed for an ideal state to function effectively, he wrote about how a city/state would supply its basic needs: "It will need a farmer, a builder, and a weaver, and also, I think, a shoemaker and one or two others to provide for our bodily needs. So that the minimum state would consist of four or five men." Plato's assumption was that you'd need some specialization of labor skills, and that within the well-functioning village or city or state, division of labor in that way would enhance the overall life of the community.
