A New Society?!

Here is some advice on how to create a tribal society for you and your friends. Whether its just for fun or if you'd like to get away with some of your close personal friends, this will tell you how to live primitively with the only rules being the ones you and your other tribe mates want.

[edit] Steps

Decide who else will be included in your tribe. You'll need guys and girls. Around ten people will be a good start. Make sure all of these people are willing to come, otherwise it will be kidnap. Dont choose people who will be likely to whine or two people who hate each other. You really don't want arguing!
Decide on a chief or several people to be a council to make decisions. Everyone needs to agree on this and having more than one person might be a good idea to keep anyone from becoming too controlling. If you do have one person, be sure that she/he is supported by the entire tribe. They need to be fair and want the best for your group.
Find a good location. It needs to be somewhere secluded so that no one will accidentally stumble on the village, it also needs to be near a source of fresh water and food. You will want to live some where with animals (if you will be hunting) wood (weapons, buildings etc.) and water.
Research history about the area. Study about native americans in your region. How did they eat and drink? What did they use as shelter? Also study about mistakes that communities made. One example is how a comunity failed because they lived upland, dumped waste upland, and fetched water from downhill. You can guess what happened. The poisons in their waste were in their drinking water, and they all died.
Decide on your village type. If it's in a forest, you might consider tree houses to live in, in a desert, try underground dwellings or caves. There are all sorts of village types to use.
Before beginning any work on your village, decide on laws and punishments for those who break the laws. You will need this!! Example: If anyone steals, they will have to return twice the value of the object. Hopefully you wont need to use them!
Begin construction of the village, use only resources that can be found naturally in the area you're building. You might want to still live in your current home while in construction.
After the village is built, gather or make things you'll need. Again try to use natural resources, some things you'll need are: blankets, clay jars for water, clothing to fit your surroundings, and weapons for use against wild animals (don't bring guns or knives, use stones and slings, staffs, or any other weapon you can make using your surroundings).
Decide how you will cook and collect food. When considering how to collect food you have to decide whether hunting, foraging or farming would be best for your tribe, perhaps a combination would suit you best. Cooking food is also important, a communal fire pit is a good idea, be sure that the fire is far enough away from the shelters to be safe.
When you and the rest of your tribe are ready move out to the village.

[edit] Tips

Make sure all of the people you are taking with you are in agreement about EVERYTHING, even a small dispute could cause trouble.
Know what edible plants are in the area of your tribe.

[edit] Warnings

Make sure someone knows where you are going, just in case.
Make sure EVERYONE agrees, THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL.
Remember if your're going to be isolated you will eventually have to have kids or your tribe will die out. Make sure you're not opposed to this idea.
