Life of early human was very hard. Unlike nowadays they had
to risk their lives for survival. Finding foods was not an easy task for them.
They used to walk all day in search of foods. Since humans were small in
comparison to other wild animals, they had to protect themselves from them. So,
to get protection from wild animals, extreme weathers, early human started
living in a cave. (The reason they are call caveman).
Firstly, early humans used to eat fruits and roots of plants
for foods. But after discovering weapon tools, they started hunting. So, we can
consider our ancestor as omnivorous. Early humans were free travelers. They
used to travel various places for better shelter and foods. From the fear of
being hunted by wild animals they didn’t use to sit in a place for much longer
time.
From the beginning of our evolution, humans were social
animals. They used to live in groups. This helped them in many ways. Living in
groups provided security to them from strangers. Larger no of people meant greater
possibility of finding foods, easier hunting and many other advantages. This practice
later turned out to be of significant use. Human beings started creating
families and societies. They discovered farming, started domesticating animals
and lived away from the wild.
