The people known as Canaanites lived mainly in the cities and closely settled farmland areas of coastal Palestine, approximately north of present-day Tel Aviv. The Philistines lived in the coastal areas to the south.
The Canaanites were crop farmers and appeared to have eaten pork regularly, because domestic pigs can be farmed more intensively than sheep and cattle.
Sheep and cattle were more commonly herded in the dry hinterland areas, settled by the Hebrew people, although crops were also grown, especially in the north.

Where did the serfs live?
Serfs lived in small agricultural villages and engaged in activities such as farming, herding, and less often fishing or mining. These villages might have had a population as small as 50 people, and in rare cases as many as 1000, but on average were probably home to around 300 people. Most residents of these villages were farmers or herders, but there would typically be a few tradesman and specialists, such as a blacksmith, a carpenter, various sorts of millers, etc, in the village. The alternative to the village was the market towns and the cities, which had economies focused on manufacture, crafts, and trade, instead of agriculture. Most residents of these towns were free rather than serf.
