BACK IN TIME: BACK IN TIME: WHAT WOULD YOU DO? WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

Gro Group 1: up 1: You are a group of people split equally between males and females that mostly descend from a common, recent, ancestor (great-great grandfather, great-great-great grandfather.) You practice agriculture and small scale livestock breeding on farms centered on a central area where religious practices focusing on fertility and harvests are centered. The most advanced technology you have available to you is the stone plow.

Gr Group 2: oup 2: You are a group of people formed over a large area by multiple families, and only loosely connected. Your population has slightly more females than males. You spend your days hunting small animals and gathering wild grains and fruit for food. You have no set settlement, but have firm religious beliefs regarding nature, and the heavens. In fact, central to the success of your religion would be the construction of large monoliths (such as Stonehenge, or the pyramids) to chart the movements of the sun and the stars. The most advanced technology you have available to you is the stone axe.

Gr Group 3: oup 3: You are a group of people formed over a large area by primarily male hunter/warriors whose connection centers on the need for cooperation in the hunt. You construct portable settlements based on the movements of wild animal herds. Your religion is based on a strong male warrior god. The most advanced technology you have available to you is a bow and arrow.

Ru Rules: les: 1. Currently, each member of the group is responsible for themselves and their immediate family 2. Each group inhabits their own set area, but is aware of the other groups around them 3. Anything else goes!

Her Here We Go! e We Go! 1. Determine how you will provide food for each member of your group 2. Plan what you will do in a food emergency (drought, a disease that affects the animal population, poor harvest) 3. Determine ways in which you will guarantee reproductive matches for your group 4. Figure out the best means in which to engage in your particular religious practices 5. Discuss the best way to prevent one or more member of the group from stealing from or killing other members 6. Discuss what is the best way for your group to protect its resources
