Activity Overview

The three examples provided as evidence include:
- "Rain fell that night and lasted for two days.”
- "If I built a hut here I would have to kill him and his pack. I planned to do this anyway, but it would take much time."
- "There was another place to the south where I could have built my house...but I did not want to go there because it would remind of the people who were gone."
