Neolithic Revolution

From Hunter Gatherers to farmers was an interesting series of videos to watch. It shows how people in the old ages revolved from hunting food, and gathering wild berries and grains, to farming and being able to stay in one place. It surprised me how tamed the animals were, seeing how they don’t have the technology that we have to tame our animals, (Pets.) I thought it was a bit strange how much they changed. For example, eating raw meat. During the Paleolithic age, people ate meat straight from…

The domestication of wild plants and animals allowed for food to be more consistently available and therefore easier to obtain. Subsequently, this had an effect on the lifestyles of early humans as they were no longer having to forage for sustenance. Studying and understanding how domestication changed early human lifestyles is important because it provides us with specific milestones for agriculture, growth in community, economic exchange, and overall human advancement. For instance, the site…

There are five major archaeological paradigms, which include the Speculative Period that took place from 1492-1840, the Classificatory-Descriptive Period that took place from 1840-1914, the Classificatory-Historical Period that took place from 1914-1940, the New (Processual) Period that took place in the 1960’s up to the 1980’s, and the Post-Processualism that took place 1980 and present. During each period there were different interpretations of what archaeology was, there were new ideas of…

People who practice this craft are called stonemasons, but there are various levels of achievement within this profession, namely apprenticeship, journeyman and master. While the lower two ranks are both considered a stonemason, and the highest rank is called a master stonemason. These ranks began…

Page 28 Question 5- The emergence of the agricultural revolution began because of the end of the Ice Age. The new environmental conditions allowed humans to further explore the world and new food sources that were now able to grow. Due to the millenia of hunting and gathering, humans had extensive knowledge of the world and this allowed them to domesticate plants and animals. Page 31 Question 6- The Agricultural or Neolithic Revolution effected each part of the world differently. For example…

1. The neolithic revolution was the period in time in which the introduction of agriculture led people to transition from the wandering nomadic lifestyle to settled life. During this time, nomads, or people who wandered from place to place in search of food, began to domesticate animals and crops so that they no longer had to follow or hunt for their food sources; because of this, these former nomads were able to create farms using the crops they domesticated and settlements and were able to use…

for material progress, and enabled the spread of knowledge. First people began to used primitive stones tools in 400,000 B.C.E. Then from 400,000 to 11,000 B.C.E., the Paleolithic period, people survived as nomads. From 11,000 to 4000 B.C.E., the Neolithic period, the nomads began to settle. The Paleolithic period, also called the Old Stone Age, consisted of the use of basic chipped stone. This was the first crucial step that would lead to domestication and cultivation.…

Humans were believed to be nomadic in the past. Their primary source of living was hunting and gathering so they had no permanent settlement. Though the reason was not very clear, humans eventually developed agrarian societies. People learned to cultivate lands and agriculture became their source of livelihood. This led to the development of technology in producing food. Eventually, they decided that some humans could work as farmers while others focused on other jobs like constructing…

The transition from Paleolithic to Neolithic Culture The first part of the stone age was the Paleolithic culture, which begin around 750,000 BC. During the paleolithic culture tools were made. The first tool that was made was the Oldowan dating back to 2.5 - 1.2 million years ago. The homo habilis constructed this tool by using stone and beating off flakes of the stone. There were two types: flake tool and core tool, depending on what needed to be done. The second tool made was the Acheulean it…

dogs, cats , birds , tortoises , and crabs. The tools we used for hunting, cooking, weapons, etc. were stone, bone, wood, bola/slimgeht, tool bags, and baslute – pots. We made all these things by hand. (We spent a lot of time) Back in the Neolithic Age, New Stone Age 8000 B.C.E – 3000 B.C.E, we began with the invention…
