Agriculture
This week i carried furniture, painted an apartment, made fire and grilled meat. It felt primordially exciting. Jared Diamond in his 'The Third Chimpanzee' writes it's very likely that hunter-gatherers lived happier lives. Paleopathology shows, that they had a better diet, fewer diseases and healthier teeth. A few 'primitive' tribes that exit today have a working load (hunting and gathering) of about 20 hours per week, something barely attainable for an average westerner.
