It's generally accepted that, in terms of hours-per-day, hunter-gatherers worked (and still work) less time than subsistence farmers.

    I generally disagree, but my specialty is not Neolithic people's nor hunter gathers. I'm pulling in mostly my general coursework, but as I was taught the skeletal evidence points otherwise.

    If you're relying on any studies using modern hunter gatherer groups as an analog that's largely been discounted through skeletal comparison.
