As I've said, drop it, and add Rural instead.

I don't think it is specifying it to the keyworld.
The Keyword is Hunter, and it means you know the things that hunter know.
Your guys use a bow and not traps? Then you have bow in the keyword,
and maybe even (no traps).
Oh, you guys use wabbitcatcha? Use that.
It's like the lists of clan or tribal weapon specialities.
Think of the diferent animals that the Praxians ride/herd. The Keyword doesn't have bison or alticamulus. But the culture is Praxian.
