Unit 1 - Chapter 3: Early Humans and the Agricultural Revolution
Chapter 3.1: Hunter-Gatherers
The Paleolithic Age
Earliest part of the stone age
2.5 million years ago - 8000 B.C.E
Surviving in the Paleolithic age
%%Nomads:%% people who regularly move from place to place
Hunted and gathered
Men: hunted large animals
Women: gathered in meadows nearby
Invention of Tools
%%Technology:%% tools and methods to perform tasks
Sticks, stones, and tree branches used as tools
Used ^^flint^^ as a sharp object to cut food - major breakthrough for early people
Over time - more complex tools (bows, arrows, spears, etc)
Changing to Survive
%%Climate%% affected life → cold climates meant clothing from animal skins to stay warm
Constructed tents out of animal skins, brush, and wood → ice and snow for cold
Caves provided lots of protection against large animal attacks
Fire = Change
Provided warmth, light, scare away wild animals, cooking
^^Archaeologists believe that early humans learned to make fire by friction^^
^^Rubbing 2 pieces of wood together, became heated and charred → wood hot = fire^^
^^Discovered that certain stone, iron pyrite, gave off sparks that ignited dry grass or leaves^^
Language and Art
Up until this time, communicated through sounds and physical gestures
Began to express themselves through words
Art was another way to express themselves
%%Paleolithic cave paintings%% found all around the world
Yellow, black, red rocks, and animal fat = paint; brushes = animal hair
Now sure why early artists made cave paintings
Chapter 3.2: The Agricultural Revolution
The Neolithic Age
@@8000 B.C - 4000 B.C@@
Neolithic: Greek for “New Stone” (New Stone Age)
Shift from hunting and gathering to %%systematic agriculture%% (growing food on regular basis)
Big Changes for Humankind
Settle farming → %%Agricultural Revolution%%
Could produce constant food supply, led to faster growth in population
Widespread Farming
8000 B.C - 4000 B.C: Systematic agriculture began to spread and become regular throughout the world
