Stone Age men faced the problems of survival, of fulfilling their basic needs: food, shelter, and clothing. They were aware of “Forces of Nature,” which they endowed with supernatural powers. These people worshipped primitive gods, the sun, moon, and water. The worship of a god or gods distinguished earliest man from the beasts. They possessed a sense of wonder and curiosity and an awareness of beauty and the powers of nature that seemed to control their world. Small children are fascinated to learn how early man lived. Many home-schoolroom pupils are scattered throughout the world; they often live in an area where the native peoples still use primitive implements and tools. This provides a living link with what they learn in history about early man.
