At least in parts of the empire

2020-04-07 21:20:16 UTC  

Sometimes but not always.

I've been wondering how mobile hunter gathere populations actually were considering certain sites where they lived have evidence for continuous inhabitation which seems like good evidence for distinct territory/hunting grounds

2020-04-07 21:22:40 UTC  

EEF encroached on this slowly
The only really nomadic populations I can think of relied on grazing and were highly violent

2020-04-07 21:23:36 UTC  

Pastoralists are well optimized to win wars against early civilizations but very badly optimized for maintaining control over early civilizations. (limited numbers + highly decentralized organization)

2020-04-07 21:24:14 UTC  

That's why groups like the Suebi just continually comitted genocide on their neighbours afaik

2020-04-07 21:24:20 UTC  

If you can't rule them

2020-04-07 21:24:45 UTC  

As for how mobile hunter gatherers were, no more mobile than they could walk, I would imagine.

2020-04-07 21:24:57 UTC  

Also wondering about the lack of permanent settlements before agriculture because fishing is a thing

2020-04-07 21:24:58 UTC  

@21ooAB sorry mate wont be able to join, was having a game with a budy and its ran over the ideal time, sorry for any fuck about for you

2020-04-07 21:26:00 UTC  

I know that permanent or semi-permanent fishing villages were a thing centuries before the first cities.

2020-04-07 21:29:36 UTC  

The earliest archaeologists thought that the invention agriculture was a sudden thing but it was probably a very gradual process.

2020-04-07 21:31:46 UTC  

I invented agriculture

2020-04-07 21:40:09 UTC  

If I had lived back then I probably wouldn't have bothered with grains and instead planted stuff which was already available like trees which bear fruit

2020-04-07 21:40:28 UTC  

Stuff that doesn't require tilling and can be spaced out

2020-04-07 21:40:47 UTC  

Perfect for low population density environment

2020-04-07 21:42:19 UTC  

Afaik literally what people in the Amazon rainforrest did

2020-04-07 21:42:54 UTC  

As in the forrest is cultivated in many areas even ignoring stuff like Terra Preta

2020-04-07 21:43:23 UTC  

Something last

2020-04-07 21:43:48 UTC  

But fruit doesn't stay edible for nearly as much time as grains do.

2020-04-07 21:44:36 UTC  

You will not be able to feed yourself through an entire year with just fruit production.

2020-04-07 21:45:32 UTC  

Depends. You can dry fruit which makes it last longer and supplement with meat

2020-04-07 21:46:44 UTC  

And in warmer regions with year round growing conditions you can plant and eat as you need

2020-04-07 21:47:17 UTC  

Unless there's not enough space for it

2020-04-07 21:47:29 UTC  

Space or too much population pressure

2020-04-07 21:48:45 UTC  

Also fish

2020-04-07 21:54:23 UTC  

There's also another problem with making fruits your main source of nutrients. To get the same amount of food you would get via grains you would need quite a lot more space which makes it a lot harder to defend. And growing a tree takes a lot longer then growing wheat so if something happens to your food production like a fire you would need many years to rebuild.

2020-04-07 21:56:04 UTC  
2020-04-07 21:56:15 UTC  

Yeah

2020-04-07 21:56:26 UTC  

At least he is not cucking on that

2020-04-07 21:56:38 UTC  

Has cucked on to many

2020-04-07 21:56:51 UTC  

If he cucks on that he is done i think

2020-04-07 21:57:03 UTC  

Its quite funny that now the left cant complain because they would hurt the greens too.

2020-04-07 21:57:18 UTC  

yeah bit quiet

2020-04-07 21:57:55 UTC  

But hey nobody is talking about anything besides the wuhflue

2020-04-07 22:02:50 UTC  

The whole response to the crisis is gonna hurt them a lot probably Not because they were inefficient or anything like that but everyone is gonna blame them for the results like high unemployment.

2020-04-07 22:05:09 UTC  

They got to keep sacrificing children for their master Moloch

2020-04-07 22:07:46 UTC  

BASED texas

2020-04-07 22:08:41 UTC
