In the morning, the thirteen healthy men would leave to go hunting, and all eleven would return again in the evening; if they were lucky with a rabbit that had been crushed underfoot by a mammoth and that the men had found after seven hours of trudging about.

The men roasted pieces of meat they'd managed to loosen from the carcass, and the whole group would munch on them – together with the nuts, roots, berries, seeds and toadstools that the women had gathered, and the fish and snails the children had caught in the river.
