why did hunter gatherers move place to place?
Hunter -gatherers travelled from place to place for four basic reasons .They are :

(i) If they stayed at one place for a long time, they would have eaten up all the available plant and animal resources.  Therefore, they went to another place for more food.

(ii) Animals move from place to place. Humans followed them as they hunted them.

(iii) Plants and trees bear fruit in different seasons. So when season changed, people moved to another place.

(iv) In search of water, people travelled from place to place. Water is necessary for survival.
