The problem is he has no money and his parents are poor farmers who have barely enough money for their family to live on. He asked his mother for help but she didn’t have any money which made her very sad that she could not help him. Billy found a sportsman’s magazine in a abandoned fishing camp. In the magazine was an ad for two hound dogs from Kentucky for fifty dollars. Billy decided to earn the money himself to get his dogs.
Critical Thinking – Kinship Organization of San Tribe The kinship organization of the San people is a multifamily grouping. They are made up of small mobile bands. These bands are “typically composed of a group of related nuclear families” or a few extend families. (Nowak & Laird, 2010, 3.7) They are a foraging society and all food is shared among each other. “San communities comprise up to about 25 men, women and children.” (Siyabona Africa, 2011, para 7) Everything they do in these small communities helps the survival of the entire family.
In the one hour long special that really touched my heart it shows how this overgrowing crisis is getting out of hand and how us as Americans need to lend a helping hand to stop this. By helping start more programs in my community and helping give students enough nutritious food to get them through weekends, hand-delivering meals to students’ homes during summer break, and providing services to their families and local food kitchens we would decrease a lot of this. We can also help out by calling our governors to help out. Hunger Hits Home made it clear that America’s hunger crisis is occurring in every neighborhood in the United States. And they also make it clear that when everyone contributes to making a difference, we can stop hunger in its tracks and give every child a healthy, happy
The first Archaic Native Americans were hunter-gatherers. They followed huge animals such as the mammoth across the land bridge from Asia to the Americas. They lived in bands of about two dozen people. The men hunted while the women gathered nuts and berries. Men would go to other bands to find a wife.
A nuclear family is composed of a mother and father and their children. The nuclear family is most common because, in a foraging setting, it is adaptive to various situations.”(Endicott, 1981). These camps live in groups and move from place to place so they can hunt, dig tubers, and gather goods from the forest. Both the men and the women share the same amount of work in order to take care of their families and find food. Most often the men take care of the hunting (using handmade bamboo pipes and poison darts), and the women gather the tubers and berries.
For this reason nuclear families are the most common type of families in foraging societies. A nuclear family is described as being, “composed of a mother and father and their children,” (Nowak and Laird, 2010, section 3.7). According to section 3.7, “The nuclear family is most common because, in a foraging setting, it is adaptive to various situations,” (Nowak and Laird, 2010, section 3.7). Foragers called the San “Bushmen,” live in southwest Africa in the Kalahari Desert. Due to living in the desert, the San have to move frequently.
Its a long walk for them to get where they need to go so they stay in there house. They take care of each other and try to servive. Everyone can only eat a little bit of food each day because they have no clue how long this storm it is going to last. The electricity goes out, then comes back on, the goes back out and so on.

The first generation of the families ate foods from their native land, which consist mainly of rice and vegetables. Many of children in the families eventually replaced their native foods with animals based foods such as red meats and dairy products. As a result, the children became overweigh and sick. In addition to Dr. Campbell’s experiment, Dr. Esselstyn put a group of his sick elderly patients on a strict eating plan for several years. The diet make up of natural foods from whole minimally refined plants such as fruits, vegetables, grains and lagoons.
San Tribe and their Kinship System Valery Taylor ANT 101 Prof. Melissa Kirkendall March 27, 2012 San Tribe and their Kinship System One of the historical tribes of Southern Africa, is the San society who have lived for a long time on a land that spans across Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia and Angola. San people, are a foraging tribe in Africa, they are band society made up of the nuclear family and extended family. Band society such as the San survive by going where there is numerous amount of food and water. The San people divide their labor between gender just like many other foraging bands. The women care for their children and forge for vegetation and men hunt and provide other skills.
This report explores the San, or Bushman, culture of southern Africa and how they express their relationship with nature. Three of their key arts are: storytelling, music and painting. Cultural Approach to Nature San live mainly in the Kalahari Desert of Botswana and Namibia. In the past, the San have been called Bushmen by southern African whites. Although many of them have become settled, many still live as hunter-gatherers organised in small groups, or bands, of about ten nuclear families.
