True South: Diaries of a stone-age migrant

About 5,000 years ago, people were not that different from us. Ego/ethno/historico/psycho-centrism just prevent us to look at things this way, for fear of bringing too close to our consciousness the ridiculously tiny slice of the time and universe we occupy. Even creating a past filled with myths, dragons and fantastic populations and societies helps warding off such painful awareness. None of that here.
About 5,000 years ago, people were moving around.
About 5,000 years ago in Northern Europe, where the story starts, agriculture was gaining ground on hunting-gathering. This didn't go without a few problems because these were two radically different modes of production, not two different people, as many still prefer to believe. This was the beginning of our wealth and of our misery.
About 5,000 years ago, there was at least one almost perfect place on Earth, in the middle of the Mediterranean sea.
This is the story of a stone-age migrant, who also happened to have been friend with the man we have named "Otzi".
It is written as a diary, the impossible record of an oral diary
