Would you live in ancient times for a day?
The article for today is a question which asks if you would like to live in ancient times, with no electricity, internet or mobile phones for a day?
Ancient times
Have you ever wondered how can life be in ancient times for the human beings living in the current century? Imagine living in a cave, the mountains or the like, with no sign of internet connections and smart gadgets, hunting animals for your daily food and finding sources of water and getting fruits from the trees, life would be harder but more alive if we say so.
Living in old times makes us stronger by mental and physical meanings, and provides us with exercice as long as we are out hunting for food or simply taking a small trip which is full of wild life and nature. Sometimes all we need is to relax in the mountains, away from technology and the city life, but we suddently miss our mobile phone and decide to take it out of our pocket and go back on social media.
Caves
Cavemen are known by this name for the fact that they used to live in caves, and caves definitelly look cozzy and warm and feel safer than a modern house for sure because of it's natural rocky looks and deep design. Considering living in a cave will require a lot of effort for the modern generations, men or women, as electricity is one of the most important things in our daily life, yet is not available in ancient times inside a cave. Other things like automatic generators or water pumping stations are also not a thing, well you cant even login to read cash to post your articles which is going to be a messy day.
Cars
There is no vehicles of transportation besides a donkey, a horse, a camel or simply walking from one country to another. Cars weren't a thing back in the days and forget about lamborghini or ferrari brands as the only real animals you would ride besides the logos are a real horse or a donkey. I wonder why electric cars nowadays don't use a donkey's head logo on their cars if they are kind of slow, well maybe they did not think about it.
Hunting with no rifle
Hunting requires us to have a rifle or a gun which is modern and capable of taking on wild animals including birds in the sky and fast deers, but in ancient times there was no modern rifles and you only had to use something which you created such as a long knife which is a spear to hunt animals with, or something like a crossbow where you throw a knife on the animals to hunt them and kill them. Other methods which I'm not aware of but could possibly been used are poisoning the animals or letting your dog hunt the other animals. Hunting in ancient times requires plenty of skills and fast movements unlike hunting in the modern days, and of course a workout so you can handle the situations very well.
Cooking
In ancient times you would have to cook outside using the fire and there was no actual gas that you can use to cook in the kitchen like modern days, and if you're out of wood you would have to go out in nature and chop some trees so you can light up the fire and cook your food, especially at night if you have to eat and you forgot to get wood therefore you have to go and chop some at night while its dark and with no light or electricity, therefore your life would be more in danger because of the wildlife animals that can harm you at night in the forest. Remember, there are no supermarkets available.
Police officers
Police was not a thing back in the days and any crime that happens can stay hidden almost forever before anyone finds out about it, unless the family knows the other family that killed that person or harmed him or stole from him therefore they can deal with it by themselves, but calling the police out loud if you are in danger or outside alone especially at night with no electricity or mobile or internet can be very alarming. Police of nowadays do control the environement and try their best to keep us all safe and secured.
Can you survive a day out in ancient times and try to finish 24 hours with no technology?
Thanks for reading. Have a good day everyone.

I probably would avoid doing so, but for the experience I would like to live for a day in a cave in ancient times but marshmellows on stick are a must, which are not going to be available, therefor i'm roasting pigeons for the night.
