The tribe hunts baboons, birds, antelope and buffalo with hand-made bows and arrows
There are about 1,000 Hadza living in caves around Lake Eyasi in Africa's Great Rift Valley
The tribe has lived the same way, unencumbered by the outside world, for 10,000 years
Their language, rhythmic and punctuated by clicks, is believed to be the oldest still spoken
On the banks of Tanzania's Lake Eyasi, in
the north of the country, lives the world's last hunter-gatherer
tribe
They don't grow food, raise livestock or build permanent
shelter. Instead they live a life unchanged for more than 10-thousand
years
Their world is one of ultimate
freedom - something modern society can barely imagine and is unlikely to
ever experience
Let alone have the skills in which to stay alive
Text
messages and phone calls don't exist. Nor cars and electricity
No
jobs, bosses, timetables, social or religious structures
No laws, taxes
and incredibly, no money - the closest thing to currency is the
occasional trade for a pair of shorts or sandals with a neighbouring
tribe.
