Caption: » Geographic space extends horizontally and level of specialization vertically in the drawing. The bars then represent the realms which extend in overlapping patterns across the continent, those at the highest level being spatially most extensive. Individuals participate in first one then another realm, as they play first one role, then another. The spatial patterns of realms are thus indistinct and unstable. «
