They were nomadic, They followed the herd, they moved seasonally based on the water flow and their lifestock, They didnt have animal/plant domestication so they had to depend on their lifestock for transportation, thus the utility or camel and horseback, women had more freedom/ rights and roles, their food wasnt made to feed the whole population ( it could only support a small population)
