A Primitive Man's Diary

Over 90% of the original novels on Qidian are fantasy, less than 10% are historical. Good historical novels are rarer than gold, and this one is the best I've read so far. Unlike other similar types, they don't have any strange powers, totem gods, or strange plants and animals. I still prefer this kind of pure, original text.

There's a point in this book I'd like to share: the end of matriarchal clans is related to the emergence of early agriculture. It's actually a very simple principle: whoever controls production and distribution is in control; blood ties are merely a secondary indicator, and in fact, tribes don't even use blood relations to determine kinship.

A matriarchal society doesn't mean women are in charge; it's more about large families bound by female bloodlines, where men still hold power. For a specific example of this social structure, look to a lion pride. Bows and arrows are rather impractical; slings and spears are more useful.

The protagonist's logic in this time-traveling story is unrealistic, with excessive padding and inconsistencies. Let me outline for the author the typical development path for a person who transmigrates to a primitive tribe: 1. First, solve basic survival problems (food + weapons) and hygiene (clean water, haircuts and nail trimming, bathing, clean clothes, lice control); 2.

Many people are concerned about quickly acquiring salt, but I feel that if salt were obtained too easily, it wouldn't be interesting; the story would become a wish-fulfillment narrative. This would lead to other tribes quickly running out of valuable items to trade with, and many of your own inventions would become less meaningful. The reason is that salt is too valuable.

The author sets the area within a radius that would typically take a primitive person half a day to traverse as the tribal activity range, which can also be considered territory. This range should not overlap with the territories of neighboring tribes, and this setting is basically logical. A modern, healthy adult male can walk 5 kilometers in an hour, and 25 kilometers in 5 hours.

Having read over sixty chapters, it's the same old plot again: a weak protagonist takes something good to a strong person, but the strong person doesn't take it, letting the protagonist throw a tantrum, while the strong person keeps smiling apologetically. It's illogical for a protagonist like this to even exist!

Every time I see "Sogga," it reminds me that the author is writing a primitive diary of the Japanese islands. Your book will definitely be popular in Japan.

The rest of the book is quite good, so why keep focusing on those mushrooms and sashimi? Those two things can be fatal if you're not careful. Survival is the most important thing for primitive people, so they wouldn't dare to touch them even if there was only a 10% risk. As a result, you not only ate your fill, but also shared the food with other tribes. If I run out of things to write about, will I just use mud to make a mahjong table?

By chapter 20, everyone had suddenly run away! They couldn't even find salt and had to make paper! They were also struggling with weaving, and everyone was practically naked! The normal primitive process involved food, salt, pottery, weapons, then incorporation to form tribes, ensuring a stable and sustainable food supply and improving the safety of the environment!
