Exploring the lives of hunter-gatherers over three decades, the author challenges conventional views, arguing that it is agricultural societies and their descendants who are the real nomads, marked by restlessness. In contrast, he highlights the profound connection that hunter-gatherers have with their land and traditions, showcasing their unique understanding of belonging to the natural and spiritual realms. This thought-provoking examination invites readers to reconsider stereotypes and appreciate the depth of indigenous cultures.
