    No, i wasn't implying that. I was musing on the effect of transport on
    violence early on. Foraging using transport greatly increases the range of
    territory that can be accessed for resources, and also brings you into
    (potentially) into contact with more groups.

    The Inca's did pretty well using legwork to build a civilisation.
