"The headright system was originally created in 1618 in Jamestown, Virginia. It was used as a way to attract new settlers to the region and address the labor shortage. With the emergence of tobacco farming, a large supply of workers was needed. New settlers who paid their way to Virginia received 50 acres of land." I hope this helps happy holidays!:)

Which statements describe early humans? Select all correct answers. For the most part, early hunter-gatherers were nomadic. Earl
vivado [14]

Answer:

- For the most part, early hunter-gatherers were nomadic

- Early humans lived in caves, rock shelters in cliffs, and in tents

- An achievement of early humans was the mastery of fire

Explanation:

The early humans had much different life than the humans of the Neolithic and even more than the modern day humans. These humans had only several achievements, mostly the mastery of fire, creation of simple shelters, and creation of tools and weapons from stone. Their prime concerns were getting food and safety. The food was obtained through hunting of animals and gathering of certain plants. This meant that they had to have nomadic lifestyle in order to have enough food to survive, and their migrations were dictated by the migrations of the animals and the seasons. This was putting the early humans at big risk constantly, as there were lot of predators that were able to take them down with ease, such as big cats, canids, ancient bears, hyenas, and even the animals that they were hunting were extremely dangerous, especially the mastodon and mammoth. In order to be safer and more effective in getting food, they lived in groups, and were spending the nights in caves, rock shelters in cliffs, and in retractable tents, usually located at good locations for defending.
