The subsistence level of human existence was our first cultural structure. It wasn't much of a structure, really but nonetheless, in small groups, humans found a way to work together to survive.

Of course at the time, resources were limited. People did not have access to the tools, experience, and machines to transform natural resources we have today. Nonetheless, they developed skills that let them create what they needed.

People at this stage had a very direct and concrete experience of what was available and what was lacking for them. How can it help us to reconnect with that direct experience of living and being they had?
