I’d quite like to wrap this up this week, at least mainly as i think we have a tendency to drag stuff out rather a lot. There is so much enthusiasm for information here at the moment, that it would be good to move on.
However, i do feel that this is quite a jump off point; we can build so much on some of the things we’ve learned and tried and i do plan to come back to this era by starting Story of the World early next year. So i’m trying to think what else i could do this week to draw it all together?
We’ve covered:
clothing/dyeing
food/gathering/hunting
housing/living conditions
pot making
travel/nomadic life
I’d like to:
pull it all together with a pictorial timeline.
look at tools and fire
try some “cave painting”
animals
explore communication methods
consider farming further
talk briefly about worship and ritual
Also put more into archaeology, as an ongoing theme.
If anyone can think of anything else, feel free 🙂
(Did i mention how great Mik’s Mammoth is?)
