The Hadz > !
1.They don’t grow crops, they don’t raise animals and they don’t count the days or months - the Hadza tribe of East Africa is probably the last hunter-gatherer tribe on Earth.
2.People are sitting by the fire, and they are feeling hungry. The tribe leader tells the others he saw some monkeys. They pick up their bows and go hunting.
3. I have come to the Hadza land in Tanzania for a few days with the leader’s son. I am excited to get close to the Hadza people. They live in the extreme heat, the soil is poor, and water is in short supply. They don’t have any ideas about the time: hours, weeks, months and years have no meaning to them. They have no crops, no animals and no houses. They live on what nature provides. I have come to meet these hunter-gatherers in person.
4. After a successful night hunting monkeys, they return to the camp. The women have collected some fruits. The tribe shares everything. They are generous and easy-going. After that, nobody knows when the next meal is. They wander the land taking food from it whenever they need.
5. Free from belongings, jobs, money, and responsibilities, they don’t seem to have any worries. After saying goodbye to them, I wonder about their future: it is only a matter of time before the days of wandering the land are over for the Hadza. I hope not.
