Band

#Band

A band constitutes the least complex level of society. Nomadic hunter-gatherers will live in bands of fewer than 50 people. Bands form, dissolve, and reform casually with the seasons; anyone unhappy with her current band may at any time leave to find another, with or without a family member or two. So while bands themselves don't contain very many people, band members can potentially have wide-ranging social circles.
