Modern humans lived as nomads for 99 per cent of our history

These people needed little else. Their habit was to share things with each other. It was, like the air we breathe today, something common to us all, a resource to be shared between all living things: plants, animals and people.

The woods were their ultimate source of food, warmth, habitation, medicine and shelter. To them, nothing was more important than looking after nature’s forests. They trusted completely in her abundance and her resources.

Were the people living this wandering, possession-free lifestyle happy with their lot? We cannot know. But it is interesting to note that before people started living in towns and making weapons there is little evidence of extensive warfare or violence.
