What would you be?

If, big if, you were in a village-type society in the early times of man's evolution what would you be? Would you be the chief, hunter, priest, idiot etc in that settlement. Just think what you think you could be if you didnt have to qualify for a job apply for it & hold onto it to pay your bills. Reasons not mandatory, there is no "good" or "bad" pursuits only personal direction.
I'll go first , I think without the mad-dash I'd like to be the village healer, can't think of a reason why but somehow people would need one methinks.

i'd be organizing the villagers for a regime change, with me as the new chief. i'd also possibly fake spiritual holiness in order to achieve said goal.

 

village idiot village idiot!

 

Shaman, of course,

but, failing that, a sculptor of wood, or boatbuilder, some kind of craftsman.

 

I'd be that old, crazy hermit that everybody knows and avoids.

 

I would be the town bike, on which everybody had a ride on.

I would probably get stuck with the job of enforcement of SwedishFish's new rules, like chopping off the hands of theives. I wouldn't like it much, so behave.

When things settle down, I would see if Spidergoat needs help with that boat.

 

Rappaccini, you stole mine.

I'd like to be that hermit who is just sort of 'there.' Everyone knows him, but nobody *knows* him. They just know he's there, and take careful precautions to avoid him ...
