  • The hunter-gatherer way of life is based on the consumption of wild plants and wild animals.
  • Consequently, hunter-gatherers are often mobile, and groups of hunter-gatherers tend to have fluid boundaries and compositions.
  • The majority of hunter-gatherer societies are nomadic.
  • Given that hunter-gatherers tend to be nomadic, they generally cannot store surplus food.

• Archaic Hunters and Gatherers

  • While Archaic hunters and gatherers were still highly mobile, individual groups started to focus on resources available locally.
  • The majority of population groups at this time were still highly mobile hunter-gatherers, but now individual groups started to focus on resources available to them locally.

• Preindustrial Societies: The Birth of Inequality

  • Two specific forms of pre-industrial society are hunter-gatherer societies and feudal societies.
  • A hunter-gatherer society is one in which most or all food is obtained by gathering wild plants and hunting wild animals, in contrast to agricultural societies which rely mainly on domesticated species.
  • Hunter-gatherer societies tend to be very mobile, following their food sources.
  • Hunter-gatherer group membership is often based on kinship and band (or tribe) membership.
  • Only a few contemporary societies are classified as hunter-gatherers, and many supplement their foraging activity with farming or raising domesticated animals.

• Lenski's Synthesis

  • Human groups begin as hunter-gatherers, move toward pastoralism and/or horticulturalism, develop toward an agrarian society, and ultimately end up industrializing (with the potential to develop a service industry following industrialization).
  • The origins of inequality can be found in the transition from hunter/gatherer societies to horticultural/pastoralist societies.
  • In hunter/gather societies (around 50,000 B.C.), small groups of people gathered what they could find, hunted, and fished.

• Expansion and the Mexican-American War

  • Westward expansion was mostly undertaken by groups of young families, frontiersmen, and hunters.
  • This pattern was followed throughout the West as American hunters and trappers traded with the Indians and explored the land.
  • Skilled fighters and hunters, these Mountain Men trapped beaver in small groups throughout the Rocky Mountains.
  • After the demise of the fur trade, they established trading posts throughout the west, continued trade with the Indians, and served as guides and hunters for the western migration of settlers to Utah, Oregon, and California.

• Societal Development

  • The hunter-gatherer way of life is based on the exploitation of wild plants and animals.
  • Consequently, hunter-gatherers are relatively mobile, and groups of hunter-gatherers have fluid boundaries and composition.
  • The majority of hunter-gatherer societies are nomadic.
  • Examples of hunter-gatherer groups still in existence include:
  • The line between agricultural and hunter-gatherer societies is not clear cut.

• Early Lifestyles

  • Paleo-Indians subsisted as small, mobile groups of big game hunters, traveling light and frequently to find new sources of food.
  • These groups were efficient hunters and carried a variety of tools, which included highly efficient fluted style spear points, as well as microblades used for butchering and hide processing.
  • The Lithic peoples, or Paleo-Indians, were nomadic hunter-gatherers and are the earliest known humans of the Americas.

• Bronze Age Rock Carvings

  • The majority of rock carvings were produced in caves or canyons by hunter-gatherer peoples who inhabited the area, and typically depicted animals, humans as well as some narrative scenes .
