	Hunter-gatherer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the 1966 "Man the Hunter" conference, anthropologists Richard B. Lee and Irven DeVore suggested that egalitarianism was one of several central characteristics of nomadic hunting and gathering societies because mobility requires minimization of material possessions throughout a population; therefore, there was no surplus of resources to be accumulated by any single member.
		It has recently been claimed that, in most cases, these groups do not have a continuous history of hunting and gathering, and that in many cases their ancestors were agriculturalists who were pushed into marginal areas as a result of migrations and wars.
		Their population densities tend to be lower than those of agriculturalists, since cultivated land is capable of sustaining population densities 60–100 times greater than land left uncultivated.

	Hunter vs. farmer theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the hunter-gatherer cultures that preceded farming societies, hunters (presumably mostly men) probably needed hyperfocus more than gatherers (presumably mostly women).
		The hunter vs. farmer theory is applied to attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD or ADHD) and adult attention-deficit disorder (AADD).
		Under this theory, the attributes of a hunter gave way to those of a farmer for most people as civilized society evolved from a nomadic existence to one of more permanent settlements.

	Hunter Gatherer -WWW2002
		By integrating Hunter Gatherer within the browser in a manner similar to browser support for bookmarking, we are able to minimize the forced divided attention [15] introduced by shifting between one application (the browser) and another (the editor); between information triage and management.
		The Hunter Gatherer method is also more effective than Word for component addition, since HG automatically adds both a header for the component and the URL for the source page, the latter addition indicated by users as the most valuable attribute of the tool.
		Hunter Gatherer is an interface that lets Web users carry out three main tasks: (1) collect components from within Web pages; (2) represent those components in a collection; (3) edit those component collections.

	Fat Consumption in Pre-Agricultural and Hunter-Gatherer Diets
		gatherer tribes eating large amounts of meat, and whose diets much better approximate what the evolutionary diet is thought to have been like than the diets of modern cultures, there is good reason to believe the earlier mainstream research on fats was faulty.
		gatherers have shown that muscle meats (the leanest part of the animal) are least preferred, sometimes even being thrown away in times of plenty, in preference to the fattier portions.
		gatherers would have been any different in these preferences, since other species of animals who eat other animals for food also follow the same general order of consumption.

	Agricultural Revolution - Hunting-and-Gathering
		In the Arctic and sub-Arctic, hunter gatherers are forced by the climate to rely more on hunting to survive.
		Typically, hunter gatherers move seasonally to optimize different sources of food as they become available.
		With the aid of their flexible, rapidly evolving cultures, these groups, loosely organized as small bands of "hunter-gatherers," were able to adapt to virtually all the climate zones and environmental niches on the planet, from the Arctic (above left) to temperate zones (immediately above) to the tropics (below).

	Sahlins
		In conclusion, both archaeological and anthropological evidence shows that the hunter gatherer societies well deserve to be the “original affluent society.” What must be realized is that there is a true dichotomy between agrarian based society, which is dualistic in many ways, and the simplicity of the hunter-gatherers.
		In fact, the hunter gatherer society can be said to have more freedom now and in Paleolithic times than its agrarian counterparts.
		To accept that hunters are affluent is therefore to recognize that the present human condition of man slaving to bridge the gap between his unlimited wants and his insufficient means is a tragedy of modern times (The Original Affluent Society: http://www.hrc.wmin.ac.uk/campaigns/ef/dt/affluent.html).

	The Worst Mistake in the History of the Human Race
		It’s not that hunter-gatherers abandonded their life style, but that those sensible enough not to abandon it were forced out of all areas except the ones farmers didn’t want.
		The progressivist view is really making a claim about the distant past: that the lives of primitive people improved when they switched from gathering to farming.
		For most of our history we supported ourselves by hunting and gathering: we hunted wild animals and foraged for wild plants.

	Hunter Gatherers - New Guinea
		Contradicting a common stereotype that war is attenuated or absent among hunters and gatherers, fighting was endemic.
		Groups that depended on aquatic resources rather than terrestrial and arboreal game typically exhibited a cultural complexity rivaling that of agriculturalists in New Guinea and they strongly resembled other aquatically adapted, hunter-gatherer societies such as the Native American communities of the Northwest Coast.
		Ritual life was comparatively unelaborated, and there was little visual art - though other aesthetic pursuits such as dance and song were sometimes highly developed.

		Threshold models are convenient for drawing cross-cultural comparisons because they provide a simple scale on which to argue for membership in a class (e.g., "complex hunter gatherers"), but they can obscure processual relationships in the evolution of complexity in any particular case.

	Prehistoric row erupts over hunter-gatherer riddle - National - www.theage.com.au
		This view remains a minority one, with most archaeologists still accepting that man had not begun farming cultivated crops at this time, so the stage is set for a good old academic stoush.
		This period saw "pre-domestication cultivation" of barley, wheat, pulses and pistachio nuts.
		"The theory holds that our forebears certainly began planting crops from about 9250 BC, but the grains they planted for around 1,000 years continued to be wild varieties, leading to the mistaken conclusion that they had been gathered in the wild during those 1,000 years and not cultivated," he said.

		Maybe a god for the hunters to pray to and devise ceremonies for.
		The homonids of from two to one million years ago had gradually developed a well defined stone tool industry and had gone from picking up the odd stone and giving it a few whacks, to making core tools, flakes and blades for the purpose of scraping animal skins and cutting meat.
