READING, WRITING

Read 60 seconds in SAPIENS

The author observes that hunter/gatherers (i.e., foragers) of our early history were less susceptible to disease since they ate a variety of foods, and lived in small bands, in contrast to peoples of the Agricultural Revolution, who became subject to living in dense, permanent housing, with several domesticated animals to supply food, and large crops which were vital, but also subject to disasters (droughts, earthquakes, etc.).  Also, there must have been fewer diseases in earlier times, since many of our epidemics only appeared after the Agricultural Revolution (e.g., tuberculosis, measles, etc.)

This all seems logical to me.
