Who Are The San Bushmen? | The World's Oldest People

Am from south africa San are from south africa

Agriculture gave us abundance which can lead to domination, but it doesn't mean it will always do. There are many historical cases of agricultural societies that were equal and/or democratic. Also, there are also cases of HG that were settled. So, please, be careful with your statements.

The modern day Asians are descendants of them .

Its not farming, it was the creation of "money".

It is marxist in a way. They are not alienated from their labor. No one is stealing their labor.

You could say it is a marxist dream. One lost to time.

Interesting, but the San lived all over southern Africa. Not only the Kalahari. We have thousands off rockpaintings and engravings all over Namibia, especially in the west.

!Becky is dusting me 😂 as a descendant of the San,I approve.

16:25 not true. there is some evidence of farmer-hunter violence, but violence wasn't the main factor in the replacement of hunter gatherers. they got replaced because farmers were able to support a higher population and also exploit the land, rendering much of it unusable to hunter gatherers. example: there's no evidence of neolithic farmers in ireland killing hunter-gatherers, although they'd fight their fellow farmers occasionally. since agriculture spread throughout ireland within a century the mesolithic irish were quickly replaced

Only recently the “civilized” people have become civilized enough to be aware of the necessity to protect the ancient Hunter-gatherer cultures.

It helps not to think of tribal people as a unchanging monolithic fossil cuz they also experience the passage of time and have progressed according to their own values which have sophisticated over thousands of years

If they manage to survive western influenced culture, they will be there long after the rest of us blow ourselves up with nukes. Our "civilization" strikes me as highly anamolous and nature will strike us down soon enough. We also very stupidly gave ourselves very centralised points of failure: malignant narcissist morons that have access to nuclear codes for example

"Vines cover the ruins of Rome, Sand covers the sphinx and the juncles reclaimed the cities of the Olmecs, but the San remain."
Of course you can't have ruins if you never had anything in the first place, it's like having a rich man become poor and quit his mansion to a more modest condo and compare him to a hobo that never downgraded his housing, because he had none.

I am seriously in awe of these people and their culture, and societal structure. I always had the feeling humanity would be at its prime if we lived more naturally with the land, but you need a good structure for society as well, and clearly to all of us these people have it, but as well as to humanity's existence itself, they have sustained their way of life for at least 25,000 years, alot of change is caused by turmoil, which these people know little of

Please don't call them Bushman its like calling Inuit people Eskimos

But i like to say bushman because common name for tribal ethnic groups

Was not expecting an Obi-Wan Kenobi quote. Good one!

10:25 I don't think you can say genetic diversity keept the San people out of war and famine

I can onlythink “ i want to see the gods must be crazy again”
