Inscriptions are writings on relatively hard surfaces such as stone or metal. 2. Return to Rasheeda s question. Can you think of some answers to it? It is amazing to find out about how the world was one hundred years ago. This can be found by way of searching old manuscripts from Libraries etc. and read about the ancient times.

Some of these objects may be made of stone, others of bone, baked clay or metal. 4. Why do you think ordinary men and women did not generally keep records of what they did? Ordinary men and women did not generally keep records of what they did because they were not significant personalities but people who lived a normal day to day life. 5. Describe at least two ways in which you think the lives of kings would have been different from those of farmers. Kings and the battles fought because they kept records of their victories. Ordinary people such as hunters, fishing folk, gatherers, farmers or herders did not keep records of what they did. 6. Find the word crafts persons on page 1.

3 HOTS QUESTION ANSWERS Ques.1 History is not merely a story of kings and queens, it is more than that. How? Ans. History is HIS STORY : the STORY OF MAN. It deals with events that have happened in the past. It tells us how men lived from age to age, what problems men and women faced and how they tried to solve those problems. History tells us how people lived in the past, how they grew the plants which gave them food, what kind of pots they used for cooking and what tools and weapons they used. In short, it is the study of the past. The scholars who study the past are called historians. They take the help of various sources such as manuscripts, inscriptions and remains of buildings to reconstruct the history of the past.

4 The lucy fossil was discovered in 1974 by Paleoanthropologist, Donald Johanson and a graduate student, Tom Gray at the site of Hadar in Ethiopia. Surveying the area, they spotted a small part of an elbow bone. After two weeks of excavation of the site, several hundred fragments of bone had been recovered, representing 40 per cent of a single hominid skeleton. Johanson and Gray named this fossil skeleton, Lucy, after the Beatles song Lucy in the sky with Diamonds. When compared with modern human s skeleton Lucy s bones are common with evidence clearly pointing to bipedality or ability to walk on foot. She belonged to a new species called Australopithecus afarenesis and was one of the most important fossils ever discovered.

List three ways in which hunter-gatherers used fire (see page16). Would you use fire for any of these purposes today? Fire could have been used for many things: as a source of light, to cook meat, and to scare away animals. Yes, we use fire today to cook our food and sometimes as source of light, when electricity fails. 3. If you had a natural pebble like the ones shown on page 13, what would you use it for? The natural pebbles can be used to play games like (girls play the game gittas). The boys also play games (e.g. a group of boys keep dropping pebbles at different places and another group of boys try to find them. This is specially played in SCOUT games).

In what ways are these similar to/different from the reasons for which we travel today? Hunter gatherers moved from place to in search of food. Since animals move from place to place either in search of smaller prey, or, in the case of deer and wild cattle, in search of grass and leaves, those who hunted them had to follow their movements. Plants and trees bear fruit in different seasons. So, people may have moved from season to season in
7 search of different kinds of plants. Also, people, plants and animals need water to survive. Water is found in lakes, streams and rivers. While many rivers and lakes are perennial (with water throughout the year) others are seasonal. People living on their banks would have had to go in search of water during the dry seasons (winter and summer). We travel today to meet friends and relatives, to our work place to earn our living. 2. Make two columns in your notebook. In the left hand column, list the foods hunter-gatherers ate (see page 11). In the right hand column, list some of the foods you eat. Do you notice any similarities/differences? Hunter-gatherers food Present day food Hunted wild animals Rice Fish and Birds Bread Fruits Fruits Roots Nuts Nuts Vegetables Seeds Meat Leaves Fish Stalks Eggs There are some differences as well as similarities. Fruits and nuts can be eaten raw. Bread is a baked food which hunter gatherers never would have tasted. HOTS QUESTIONS Ques.1 The invention of wheel was a gradual process.

In n the earliest stages the bones included the bones of wild animals such as deer and pigs, however in later stages, they found bones of sheep and goats, and in still later stages, cattle bones were more common.

They discovered a few things necessary for their survival and one of them was the art of rearing crops and plants. They learnt how to grow crops and use them as food. In order to bear fruits of their grown crop it was necessary to nurture them hence these people who had started growing crops had to live in one place to take care of the crop, protect them from birds and animals and to water them regularly. 2.

Three ways in which lives of farmers and herders would have been different from that of hunter and gatherers are: (i) Farmers and herders lived in one place for a longer period of time, as they had to look after their crops. On the other hand the hunters and gatherers use to change places frequently in search of a new hunt. (ii) Farmers and herders use to domesticate animals.on the other hand the hunters and gatherers use to hunt them for food. (iii) Farmers and herders used things like clay pots, baskets to store their food however, for hunters and gathers there was no need of such things. 3.

The food consumed by Harrapans mainly consisted of wheat, barley, pulses, peas, rice, sesame, linseed and mustard. They also collected fruits like the berry, caught fish and hunted wild animals like the antelope. LONG QUESTION ANSWERS 1. Why were metals, writing, the wheel, and the plough important for the Harappans? Harappa functioned like a proper city. People were indulging in activities like farming, carving, making cloth etc. For all this they needed instruments which were made of metal. There were rulers who were often sending people to distinct land for metals, precious stones and other things. They wanted a vehicle to transport these things,so the wheel was also a necessity.also there were seals found and in order to prepare these seals there was a need to know writing. In order to grow crops and other important raw materials such as cotton, plough was also an important tool for digging the earth, turning the soil and planting the seeds. 2. Do you think that the life of farmers and herders who supplied food to the Harappan cities, was different from that of the farmers and herders you read about in Chapter 3? Give reasons for your answer. There is a lot of difference between the life of farmers and herders who supplied food to Harrapan cities and the farmers who were described in ch. 3. The farmers described in chapter 3 were the early farmers. They had made the discovery of the art of rearing crops over the period of time by their observations. Over the period of time they had learnt by watching the plants grow things necessary for their proper growth. There were no special tools for farming. Also they only used to grow the crops which they used to consume. However the farmers during the Harappan period were much more advanced, they had advanced tools and new methods of farming to enhance the growth of their crop. During this time they were not only growing crops needed for their own consumption, but also crops that provided raw material, such as cotton.
