hello dear here is ur answer
What Is a Nomad?
You may think of a nomad as someone who is constantly wandering and never settling in one place. While it is true nomads do not 'settle down,' did you know they can still play an important part of the local cultures they inhabit? They may also travel in cycles, sometimes returning to previous areas in which they once resided.
Historically, nomads were often hunter-gatherers, those who hunted and used local plants to sustain their lifestyle, peripatetic, nomads who shared a craft or trade, or pastoral, those who raised herds and moved to avoid using all the resources in one area.
Nomads and Early Civilization
Before around 1500 CE in the first areas of civilization (in modern day Iran, Iraq, Egypt, and Turkey), there were basically two ways of life: nomadic and settled. Nomads moved around to find resources, while settled farmers stayed in one place to form a community, eventually leading to the birth of cities.
Nomadic cultures usually developed because of environmental conditions. For example, people who lived in an area with land that wasn't fertile would continue moving to find fertile land. As the population grew, many people would continue moving to areas with better resources.

Nomads are people who travel around from place to place without having one settled place where they live. Many are hunters and gatherers like the San. Often they are shepherds, goatherds, or cattle herders. Sometimes nomads do stay in one place all winter, and only travel in the summer, or the other way around.
But the needs of the sheep or cows force them to go where they can find grass for the sheep or cows to eat.
Most nomads trade with settled people in cities, selling their goat meat, their donkeys, and their horses, as well as cheese, to the city people in exchange for grain (wheat or barley), beans, olive oil, wine, and manufactured things like jewelry or knives
