# Human settlement
;; This rule set attempts to model human settlement in a landscape. It models
;; western European pre-history moderately well. Settlement first occurs as
;; nomadic camps on coastal promentaries (cells with four or more neighbours
;; that are water). This represents 'kitchen-midden' mesolithic settlement.
;;
;; As grassland becomes available near camps, pastoralists appear, and will
;; follow their herds inland. When pastoralists have available fertile land,
;; they will till the soil and plant crops, and in doing so will establish
;; permanent settlements; this is approximately a neolithic stage.
;;
;; Where soil is fertile, settlements will cluster, and markets will appear.
;; where there is sufficient settlement, the markets become permanent, and you
;; have the appearance of towns. This takes us roughly into the bronze age.
;;
;; This is quite a complex ruleset, and runs quite slowly. However, it does
;; model some significant things. Soil gains in fertility under woodland; deep
;; loams and podzols build up over substantial time. Agriculture depletes
;; fertility. So if forest has become well established before human settlement
;; begins, a higher population (more crops) will eventually be sustainable,
;; whereas if human population starts early the deep fertile soils will not
;; establish and you will have more pastoralism, supporting fewer permanent
;; settlements.

# Human settlement
;; nomads make their first significant camp near water because of fish and
;; shellfish (kitchen-midden people)
if state is in grassland or heath and more than 3 neighbours are water and generation is more than 20 then state should be camp
;; sooner or later nomads learn to keep flocks
if state is in grassland or heath and some neighbours are camp then state should be pasture
if state is in grassland or heath and some neighbours are camp then 1 chance in 2 state should be pasture
;; and more herds support more people
if state is in grassland or heath and more than 2 neighbours are pasture then state should be camp
if state is in grassland or heath and more than 2 neighbours are pasture then 1 chance in 3 state should be camp
if state is pasture and more than 3 neighbours are pasture and fewer than 1 neighbours are camp and fewer than 1 neighbours within 2 are house then state should be camp
;; the idea of agriculture spreads
if state is in grassland or heath and some neighbours within 3 are house then state should be pasture
if state is in grassland or heath and some neighbours within 2 are house then state should be pasture
;; nomads don't move on while the have crops growing. That would be silly!
if state is camp and some neighbours are ploughland then state should be camp
;; Impoverished pasture can't be grazed permanently
if state is pasture and fertility is less than 2 then 1 chance in 3 state should be heath
;; nomads move on
if state is camp then 1 chance in 5 state should be waste
