In this unit, we delve into the significance of feasts from 18,000 BC, examining key terms like "reunion" and "feast." We learn about the food prepared by Lala’s family, including nuts, fruit, and meat, while exploring statements about family groups and tool-making. The discussion extends to gender roles in ancient societies, challenging the notion that women should only care for the family. Students are encouraged to research their ancestors for a future presentation, fostering a deeper appreciation of our heritage.
