Walking in the rivers and lakes inevitably requires a car that is both windy and practical, so that you can quickly reach the battlefield, or escape unimpeded (*^▽^*).
Speaking of cars, there are sports cars and BMW cars, so what are the cars of the primitive people of the Stone Age? That's right! The huge mammoths at the entrances of each village are the most convenient means of transportation in the Stone Age
The appearance of the mammoth in my heart is a long mane, a long nose, two protruding and slightly curly tusks, a small unkempt head on the top of the head, fierce and somewhat cute behemoth:
So what can such a large and lovely creature do?
1. Mount
Since it looks so cute and so big, wouldn't it be a pity not to let people ride! What does the mammoth look like in Stone Age m?
(The mammoth in Stone Age m)
Is there anything cute about it? Heaven grows a look of being bullied! Look at the broad back, the long nose, and the huge teeth, it is simply a tailor-made vehicle for primitive people ~ Compared to other dinosaurs walking upside down, the mammoth is much smoother, the thick calf, the thick hoof, a look is a good tool for transportation!
Therefore, at the entrance of each village in the Stone Age, there is a large platform guarded by a mammoth conductor and several "mammoth buses" parked at the ends, which are known as the most convenient means of transportation on the continent of Nice, and as long as a ticket and a small amount of vitality points, you can take the mammoth bus to other villages
(Mammoth bus from Stone Age m)
Also in the Old Stone Tools, there is also the existence of the mammoth bus, "ride" only need to face the mammoth and then click "join the team", wait a moment and you will leave!
(Remember when you took the tummoth bus to avoid the enemy?) ）
2. Shipping
Such a behemoth, in addition to being able to ride, of course, has other uses, that is, it can pull goods. (I don't think pulling people makes any difference to a mammoth...) ）
After the domestication of primitive people, mammoths can use their huge bodies to pull stones, wood, etc., and at that time, an adult mammoth may be used to move!
Starting with the old stone tool 1.82, with the task of tummer courier, you can earn stone coins, and by helping to transport goods to and from different villages, you can earn stone coins by getting the difference. (Of course, it is not the mammoths who actually run errands but the primitives themselves...) ）
I don't know why this task is called a mammoth courier but it has nothing to do with the mammoth, maybe because I want to replace the mammoth to deliver goods??
Of course, there are also such activities in the Stone Age m, but the form has changed a little, according to the progress bar of the charge to determine how far you can go each time, and you have to drive the mammoth to the designated place within the specified time
(Giraffe express delivery event in Stone Age m)
In the movie "Ten Thousand Years Before History", there are also mammoths: they serve as cargo lalas for building pyramids..... Oh no, it's pulling the goods, dragging the stone to the top of the pyramid by dragging the rope.
These people are really hateful, bullying cute and thick mammoths to pull goods, and cut off their teeth.
oo(╥_╥)
However, here I have to complain that this movie seems to have some bugs:
1. The mammoth generally lives in the cold region of Siberia, that is to say, the place where the protagonist first found the mammoth, the location of the tribe is in the high latitude area. Then, as the plot progresses, the daughter-in-law who has worked hard to get luck is captured by the bad guys, and the protagonist and several friends go on the road to find it, passing through the vast grasslands (mid-latitudes), and finally reaching the desert area and seeing the pyramids (Egypt?). This means that the protagonist has almost traveled half the world in order to find his daughter-in-law... The physical strength is so good!
2, the earliest civilization with pyramids is the ancient Egyptian civilization, but the earliest ancient Egyptian civilization is 7450 years ago, and the movie is more than three thousand years ahead of the advance, in a place unlike Africa and Central America to build a similar Egyptian pyramid thing, using high latitudes will appear in the woolly elephant, this is really forced stitching monster!
3. The mammoth in reality
The real mammoth, also known as the mammoth (or true mammoth), covered with long hair, tall, existed in the Ice Age, is the most famous of the extinct elephants, the size is similar to that of Asian elephants, but the hind legs are short, and the whole posture is leaning backwards.
As early as 10,000 or 20,000 years ago, they were distributed in eurasia and the northern part of the North American continent, mostly in the cold regions of Siberia. About 10,000 years ago, the mammoth population began to decline until it became extinct.
Regarding the name of the mammoth, is it a mammoth or a mammoth?
In a nutshell, the mammoth is a type of mammoth.
Mammoths are divided into several species, and the currently known ones are:
The Little Mammoth (North American Pygmy Mammoth), the True Mammoth (Long-Haired Mammoth), the Imperial Mammoth, the Wrangel Mammoth, the African Mammoth, the Southern Mammoth, the Flat-fronted Mammoth, the Prairie Mammoth, the Sardinian Mammoth and other Songhua River Mammoths have merged with the Prairie Mammoth, the American Mammoth and the Jay Mammoth may merge with the True Mammoth or the Colombian Mammoth, and the South African Mammoth is generally regarded as a subspecies of the African Mammoth.
Therefore, the mammoth in our eyes is actually the most well-known among mammoths, that is, the long-haired mammoth (true mammoth) living in the cold ice field, with a long hair on the outside, so it is called a mammoth. (A bit around...) Friends can distinguish the difference between mammoth and mammoth... ）
Regarding the shape of the mammoth, people have also made a conjecture:
(Hypothetical image)
(Museum of Prehistoric Fossils, Los Angeles)
In fact, the gap between the imaginary map and the mammoths in the museum (in fact, it is also based on fossils and hair speculations) is not very large, larger and more ferocious than Asian elephants, with huge fangs, covered with thick long hairs, with the continuous excavation of mammoth fossils, the mammoth specimens we have seen archaeologists restore are getting closer and closer to their real appearance.
4. The living environment of the mammoth
Speaking of being a foodie, if I were a primitive person, my first reaction to seeing a mammoth would be "Such a big one, and the flesh on its body is enough for our tribe to eat for a few days!" ”
Similarly, the primitive people in the Stone Age thought the same thing.
In the late Stone Age, primitive people learned to make stone axes, stone guns, and learned to make fires and roast meat, so primitive people, who were plagued by food shortages, aimed their spearheads at the cute and delicious mammoths. They often hunted mammoths to eat their flesh, and made their teeth into ornaments and wore them on their bodies to show their dignity.
So the status of the mammoth at that time was similar to that of the cattle now, some as a means of transport, as a mount, some were made into food, and in the Stone Age there was something similar:
(Huge meat)
In Stone Age m, in order to maintain ecological balance, primitive people placed a part of the mammoth in the mine and exchanged their labor costs (elephant costs) for their stable lives. In many caves, murals of mammoths are left behind, which are very realistic. (Ask a question!) Do you know what the cave where the mammoth lives in the game is called? ）
(Description of the location of the Mammoth in the Stone Age m)
5. Some stories about the old stone tools of the gibberish
If there is a trainer who has experienced the old stone tools, they should have a unique feeling for the mammoth: in the 1.82 version and early 2.0, most people were not very high in level, and they had to hang up in order to upgrade. At that time, the paradise for hanging up upgrades was hanging mammoths.
(Mammoth: Why hit us... Primitive Man: It's not because you have low attack power and are good bullies... ）
Later, the level reached about 80, and the training resort was transferred to the turtle cave hanging stone turtle, and then more than 100 was the Thunder Dragon that has been hanging on the seashore of Hero Island
(If anyone still remembers the follow-up route, you may wish to discuss with you in the comment area below~)
6. Conclusion
As a prehistoric behemoth, the gibbercus have been extinct for thousands of years, and scientists are currently studying how to preserve their DNA and try to use cloning techniques to bring them back to life. Maybe in the near future, we'll see cloned mammoths, or even mechanical mammoths, in places like zoos or science museums.
This issue of the study of the mammoth is purple ~ Thank you for your patience in reading these contents,
If you can improve your understanding of the game elements of the Stone Age or the natural sciences even a little, it will not be worth it for me to stay up late for a few days to catch up with the manuscript
