Once upon a time in a land far away,
Lived an anthropologist with much to say,
She studied people and their history,
Their ancestral traditions and mysteries.

One day, while exploring a reserve,
She stumbled upon a stronghold to observe,
Where the people of old used to dwell,
And where their stories and legends would tell.

As she explored, she saw a musket,
A weapon from times long past, she could not forget,
She wondered how it was used and why,
And hoped to remember it until she died.

She learned that the musket was used in war,
To defend their land and fight for more,
But now the people had an ally,
In peace and friendship they could rely.

The anthropologist saw that enough,
The people's culture and traditions were tough,
Their history and stories were strong,
And she knew they would last all along.

So now young ones, remember this tale,
Of a people whose culture will never fail,
Whose ancestral heritage is pure and true,
And whose story is a legacy for me and you.

Reflections

1. What is an anthropologist, and what do they do?
2. What did the anthropologist find when she explored the reserve?
3. What did the musket that the anthropologist saw represent in the story?
4. Why is it important to remember our ancestral heritage and traditions?
5. What is a stronghold, and why do you think the people who lived there chose that location to build it?
