TITLE

The nomadic movement for seekers of shelter,

style and serenity

INTRODUCTION
Nomadic living involves a different way of seeing things and a different attitude towards
accommodation, family, work and life. For many people, the home is a symbol of permanence
and the physical expression of stability and security. For others, there is less of an aspiration to
put down roots and rather a desire to explore the natural environment – to travel, adapt and
change living conditions with ease. This gives rise to small, flexible and moveable structures for
the urban nomad. When life is not concentrated in one location, nomadic architecture proposes
new living typologies that involve transforming the way we rest, cook, work and exist on the go.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
Movement of both animals and people is an inherent aspect of nomadic
pastoralism and research into why and how movement takes place has formed a
substantial part of anthropological studies of nomadism.
To disturb the nature.

MOTIVATION
The term nomad encompasses three general types: nomadic hunters and gatherers,
pastoral nomads, and tinker or trader nomads.

NOMADIC HUNTERS AND GATHERERS

A nomad is someone who lives by traveling from place to place. Nomadic thus means anything
that involves moving around a lot. Nomadic hunter-gatherer tribes follow the animals
they hunt, carrying tents with them.
A hunter-gatherer is a human living in a society in which most or all food is obtained
by foraging (collecting wild plants and pursuing wild animals). Hunter-gatherer societies stand in
contrast to agricultural societies, which rely mainly on domesticated species.
Hunting and gathering was humanity's first and most successful adaptation, occupying at least 90
percent of human history.[1] Following the invention of agriculture, hunter-gatherers who did not
change have been displaced or conquered by farming or pastoralist groups in most parts of the
world.
 Nomadic people did not farm for food but acquired it as they traveled. We call this a hunter-
gatherer economy, which is exactly what the name implies. They hunted for food and gathered
other resources as they became available.
Today, we're comfortable with the idea of staying in one place. We go to school or work, we go out
to have fun, but we always come back home. Home isn't going to move every time we take a walk.
We're used to this lifestyle today, but it wasn't always this way. In fact, it wasn't this way for the vast
majority of human history.

Pastoral nomads,
who depend on domesticated livestock, migrate in an established territory to find pasturage for
their animals. Most groups have focal sites that they occupy for considerable periods of the
year. Pastoralists may depend entirely on their herds or may also hunt or gather, practice some
agriculture, or trade with agricultural peoples for grain and other goods. Some seminomadic
groups in Southwest Asia and North Africa cultivate crops between seasonal moves. The
patterns of pastoral nomadism are many, often depending on the type of livestock,
the topography, and the climate

In the modern world, we live in sedentary or non-mobile societies. That's what we're used to.
However, that lifestyle didn't become widely available until the late Stone Age, a period called
the Neolithic (literally New Stone Age), as the Ice Age ended around 10,000 BCE. For the roughly
190,000 years of human existence prior to that, within the period called the Paleolithic (Old Stone
Age), all human societies were nomadic. This means that they did not have permanent addresses
or build permanent structures. They traveled throughout the year, moving with their food supplies
and available resources.

The Influence of Nomads on their Surroundings

With the taming of the horse for domestic usage and its resulting mobile life forms, especially the
emergence of horse breeding mounted nomads in 200 B.C., and the employment of the camel as a pack
and riding animal from 100 B.C., a spatially far-reaching, at times war-like nomadic mobility developed.

However, these developments have had differing results, according to region. Basic economic and social
conditions, often in conjunction with cultural conditions
