1. A shift from foraging to food production as a group’s primary subsistence strategy: The story that I can relate after reading this part can be the changes that occur from school to when we get a job. The shift from foraging to food production was seen to be in the similar way as the people within that group had a habit to do all their work on their own and was not dependent and suddenly after a shift they started to be dependent on the food production processes. While it can be opposite for us when we are in school we are dependent on our parents and teachers and as we step to job we are more independent in doing our work.
