Neolithic Ages led to new technologies which ultimately permitted the formation of the civilizations and societies today. Paleolithic is the beginning part of what is known as the Stone Age, enduring for only about 2.6 million years, when the first stone tools were used. The Paleolithic Age, Greek meaning for “Old Stone”, is the period in the development of the modern man. During this time…
Hunting knives have been around since the Stone Age. Stone, bone and shells were first used as knives. The one thing they had in common with today's knives is that they were sharpened on stone. Egyptians generally used long handled spears to capture prey. They were the first to attach wooden handles to their stone blades. The Egyptians primarily used knives for skinning and cutting meat. Greeks made knives of bronze that were used in Asia and Europe during the time period of the 8th to the 6th…
intricate guitar solos, and screaming vocals. People don’t usually think of slow, smooth, bluesy guitar playing when they think of rock music, but what most people don’t realize is that without the blues, musicians such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and even AC/DC would not exist. Blues music has had a dramatic influence the way rock music has, and is currently played, heard, and thought of in today's scope of music. For instance, when listening to rock music…

Many just thought the world would be how God made it out to be with no change, but that was back then now it different but some events never change. The Stone Age was a very important era they understood survival and everything that was in their environment was created for a reason. I notice their belief and values are kind of similar but is different in some ways too relating to today. Next, I would…

Not to mention, humans gather plant products, trapping small animals, and hunting large preys for food. During this time, humans grouped together in small societies such as band and subsisted. Living with larger groups would had been…
to the Neolithic Age is about to begin. Early humans had to adapt to their environment to survive. So what did they do? There were many advances in technology over Paleolithic to Neolithic Age. New ways to get food and keep warm and more helpful tools were found. To begin, the Paleolithic people were what’s called to be the hunter gatherers.

of important events, people and objects that occurred during a specific dynasty or period. It even provides specific information an important people and objects that are found to be important. For example, the Rosetta Stone has a page that you can go to by clicking on “Rosetta Stone” on the timeline. It’s useful because it gives me a timeline to go off of and I can even make this into a form of assessment, in class activity or a web quest. 2.…
also talked about how bonobos can form simple sentences using pictograms and researchers trained capuchin monkeys to purchase food using aluminum discs. Hominins created symbols and recognized them in nature, as displayed by the hominin who carried a stone resembling a face back to their cave. Most importantly, hominins were able to create an ax from rock dating back to 1.76 million years ago. Chimps also use the same mental process when they create fishing rods from twigs. There was once a…
