Like many other hunters, the Kung has been described as a leisured and even an “affluent” society. They do not have or need many material possessions and in many cases the search for food is neither exhausting nor time-consuming. One anthropologist has reckoned their average work day as six hours and that adults spend about two and a half days or between 12 and 19 hours a week in food-getting. Men may hunt for a period and then rest for several weeks; women gather enough food for three days at a time, and may then visit neighboring camps or entertain, as the men do their leisure-time.

Culture itself must be transmitted, and the most effective way is through the family. Parents teach their children the ideas and traditions they obtained from their own parents. For this reason the family became increasingly important; the practical applications of cultural traditions, such as hunting for food, rearing children and tending the sick, may have been the obvious methods to use when more than one family came together in a joint activity.

Montagner has developed a system for observing and classifying the gesture language of children. He has also tracked down some of its origins. In addition, his long-term observations of children have given him a sense of the normal and abnormal developmental timetable for the emergence of specific types of gestures and body language. By now he can calculate how many of a young child’s gestures belong to certain categories of behavior and can then derive a series of significant ratios.

1.1. I climbed the ladder, heard my dive announced, and commenced the moves that would thrust me into the air. Pushing off the diving board with my legs, I lifted my arms and shoulders back, and knew immediately I would be close to the board and might hit my hands. I tried to correct myself as I turned, spreading my hands wide apart. Then I heard a strange sound and my body lost control. Moments later I realized I had hit my head on the board. (Para. 1)

Swimming to the side, I noticed many shocked faces. People were worried about my head; I was worried about something far more threatening. An official examined my head. In haste, I pushed him away, and everyone else who approached me. “Don’t touch me!” I felt like screaming. “Get away from me!” (Para. 2)
