Chapter I: The Fire Beast

1 In what sort of a climate may we expect to find prehistoric man
during the period of Lower Savagery, when he was without tools or
weapons except of the most primitive kind? Why?

2 Since agriculture in that early day was wholly unknown and
unnecessary, on what did the people subsist?

3 Did they cook their food? Why not?

4 Imagine yourself placed upon an uninhabited island without food,
clothing or shelter in answering these questions. What sorts of
shelter did the tribes possess, if any?

5 What sorts of weapons can you fancy people would be able to make
without tools, metals or fire?

6 What would you consider the very greatest discovery made by early
man? Why?

7 How was man able to protect himself from the wild beasts during the
periods of Savagery?

8 How were the enemies of man captured and slain in these days?

9 Why do we find the tribes of this period always dwelling close to
lakes, rivers or other bodies of water?

10 How do we gather that people in the period of Lower Savagery must
have lived either in tropical or semi-tropical regions?
