1363 5193, a bol pen, guarded by four harvesters. The pen is 16x17 paces and is composed of seven disconnected fences, the entrance is large enough for two bols to walk alongside. Four bols are inside the pen.
The presence of harvesters, in the wilderness, in the strongholds and in small encampement such as this one, strongly suggests that the Dantari are now semi sedentary and have moved beyond a hunter-gatherer culture. This limited form of sedentarization (permanent strongholds and villages, semi permanent encampements, domestication) seems therefore quite widely entrenched in the culture with, in all likelihood seasonal harvests performed in rotating settlements.
