, Extract from the text: Education through practice Indigenous people of
southern Africa developed their own methods of sharing knowledge through
teaching practical skills. In most instances teaching was by showing, with
demonstrations of different skill sets for the younger generation to observe. In
southern Africa the San people, who survived by hunting and food gathering
for thousands of years, used Stone Age tools to cut up animals they had
hunted. Even though the San were using Stone Age technology, they were
very skilled in killing animals. They used, among others, bow and arrow,
snares and slow poison technologies to hunt. The bow and arrow method was
used to hunt large game such as antelope, buffalo or eland. The hunter would
stalk the game to within about 20 m, which is the distance an arrow can fly.
Instead of killing animals instantly, which was not easy because the arrow had
no fletching and often missed the target, the San used poisoned arrows to kill
the game. The animal would be poisoned to death slowly, which took from a
few hours to a few days depending on the size of the animal. The sources of
the poison were caterpillars, larvae of a small beetle, poisonous plants and
snake venom, which were put on the arrow. When the arrow struck an animal,
the hunters would have to track it until it died. Once the animal fell, the San
would cut around the poisoned area and discard it. The Khoi were also skilled
at making such weapons. Archaeologists discovered that the San also used
snares to capture prey as early as 70 000 years ago (Wadley, 2010). Traps
and snares have an economic dimension since they reduce the costs of a
long search by bringing the animal to the hunter, rather than requiring that the
hunter go after meat (Wadley, 2010). Since the prey was captured remotely,
these devices created time and space for hunters to engage in other activities
that included social activities such as rituals. Among the many ways to trap
animals, the San would dig funnel-shaped pits near rivers, place a sharp stake
in the middle and cover the hole with branches. The San hunters were
expected to observe and understand prey behaviour before they set the
snare. The snare that the San set was designed to function without human
agency. It provided evidence that indigenous people could grasp and
incorporate action across space and time (Wynn & Coolidge, 2003). Snares
are also an apt demonstration of highlevel cognition because they operate
out-of-sight, but not out-of-mind (Wadley, 2010). This non-formal technology
education was passed from generation to generation. The hunting techniques
the San used had been in existence for centuries and were passed on to
younger generations. These hunter-gatherers were able to locate seasons of
