Discuss the link between polygamy and the dawn of agriculture

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: According to Mark Dyble, the dawn of agriculture increased the practice of polygamy.

Before the dawn of agriculture, the hunter-gatherer community was an egalitarian society where men and women have equal rights and say on how the group will act and where they will go. 

When the dawn of agriculture came, men wanted to possess more or acquire more. He wanted to have more wives and more children to help him tend to his lands. He wanted to become superior over women. Thus, equality between sexes was gone.

Hi, please, help me. I'm french.Thank you very much

My ancestors: a project by Ben Winterhayes, Applewood School, Sydney, New South
Wales.
I am very proud of one of my ancestors, John Winterhayes. He arrived on a ship from
England in 1820. He was a criminal! Well, not exactly a criminal. This is his story:
John was born in London. His father died when he was 13 years old. His family were
very poor and often hungry. One cold winter’s day, he stole some food in the market
because he was very hungry.
John was caught and brought before a magistrate. In those days the British used to send
their prisoners to Australia. New South Wales was a prison colony and John was sent
there for seven years.
At that time the journey to Australia was very difficult. The journey took at least three
months.
There were often bad storms and there wasn’t much food for the prisoners. Sometimes
the weather was very hot and sometimes very cold. The prisoners were often sick and
sometimes died before they arrived in Australia.
My ancestor John never returned to England again. He never saw his mother, or his
little brothers and sisters, again. But he met a girl called Heather MacMaster and they
got married in Sydney in 1830.
That’s the story of one of my ancestors!


Read the story of Ben’s ancestor.
John Winterhayes wrote a letter to his mother when he arrived in New South Wales.
Imagine the letter he wrote to her. You must mention:

a)
his feelings when he left England
b)
how long the journey took
c)
the weather, the food, other problems
d)
his feelings during the journey
e)
arriving in Australia.
Don’t forget to start and end the letter correctly

It grieves me that I am no longer thereto assist you in taking care of our family. I hope and pray that the time willcome when I will be able to see you again; you and my siblings.

I have finally arrived inAustralia! After spending three grueling months at sea, I am here.

Our voyage was fraught withdifficulties. Weather conditions were unpredictable. Sometimes, very hot; othertimes, very cold. We encountered bad storms. We endured hunger and sickness dueto the shortage of food. A number of our companions died at sea. I felt veryhopeless during those times; fearing that I, too, will die at sea. But, by thegrace of God, I have survived.

Mother, I met someone here inAustralia. Her name is Heather MacMaster. She is a very delightful girl. Shegives me hope; the hope to live a prosperous life here. I love her, mother, andI want to marry her. I hope that there will come a day when we will see eachother again, and I can introduce you to one another; the mother, who gave melife; and the woman, who makes my life worth living.

From feeling lost and hopeless, Iam now very happy. I am looking forward to hearing from you and learning moreabout what is happening there in your side of the world.

Please write to me,mother. This is the only way I can reach you.

Your loving son,

Ben Winterhayes
