The Saan People of the Kalahari.

David Wakeling

The Saan people live in the middle of the Kalahari Desert.
They are indigenous people of Southern Africa.
They have a gentle society where no one fights and no one is hurt,

No one steals and no-one wants and no-one travels far.
They have no money but if someone is in need,
They are given a gift from others in the tribe.
No one is regarded as richer than anyone else and there is no greed.

They have dna going back o the earliest human beings.
They do not herd cattle but live on roots and natural edible plants.
They hunt the eland and wildebeest.
To catch a wildebeest without guns or spears the men
have to follow them on foot for several days.
Once the wildebeest is exhausted and drops to the ground the
men will go up to it and say thank you.
They thank the animal for giving up its life that they
might survive.
Are they what God intended? I think so.
