When anthropologists study people who still hunt and gather for their food (e.g., the Hadza), what they do more than anything is... nothing in particular. Not hunting, foraging, building, repairing weapons/clothing/housing, socializing, etc. just... chilling.
Their lives are incredibly hard and I wouldn't trade places with them, but the idea that the natural state of people is hustling is false. People hustled for their food, then rested once they had it. Some days they hunt from dawn to dusk, other days they found a beehive and chilled.
