Imagine twelve bushcrafters, none of whom speak the same language in a bushcraft situation having to get on together and survive. A bit like what it would have been like at the tower of Babal in Genesis; hypothesise even if you don't believe in that story. This is not a religion topic.
You would quickly find that many had similar skills that overlapped but all 12 would have specialities. I wonder if over time if some of tose skills would become lost, not because you could not easily pass them on but because they needed materials from another sphere of bushcraft as raw material. For example you can make a sheath but cannot cure leather etc. I also wonder how long it would take people to coordenate their efforts and how they would deal with their frustrations without resorting to toddler behaviour.
feel free to speculate away.
