As we speak over 900,000,000 humans are starving or dying from complications of malnutrition...about one of every six on the planet. Ancient/primitive mankind spent most of his time searching for or raising the food he would consume to sustain his life. Some women ate their own children during especially hard times...Josephus the Jewish historian documented such cases. They saw the bones of many each day as they moved from place to place. Bands of savages roamed raping, pillaging and taking what others had worked for.
The whole scheme of religion was devised by those with power and wealth in order to maintain some similance of control. Think about it for a moment. Paper wasn't even invented till about 500 A.D. and in Asia when it was. Only the very elite and powerful had any access to papyrus and that fact alone determined what was recorded and why.
