==Hunter-gatherers== {{Main|Hunter-gatherer}} [[File:BushmenSan.jpg|thumb|Starting fire by hand. [[San people]] in Botswana.]] Hunter-gatherers (also known as foragers) move from campsite to campsite, following [[Game (food)|game]] and wild [[fruit]]s and [[vegetable]]s. Hunting and gathering describes early peoples' subsistence living style. Following the development of agriculture, most hunter-gatherers were eventually either displaced or converted to farming or pastoralist groups. Only a few contemporary societies, such as the [[Pygmies]], the [[Hadza people]], and some [[Uncontacted peoples|uncontacted tribes]] in the [[Amazon rainforest]], are classified as hunter-gatherers; some of these societies supplement, sometimes extensively, their foraging activity with farming or animal husbandry.
