The Neolithic Revolution

Macbeth, the play was one of Shakespeare's bloody and goriest tragedies. It was based on a true story of the Celtic throne. It is a play about murder, power, ambition, greed and deception.

Political, economic, and social conditions have often led to turning points that have changed the course of history for nations and people. The Paleolithic Era and Neolithic Revolution was a turning point that changed the orbit of history for mankind. In Documents 1, 2, and 4, they explain life before the Neolithic Revolution and what changed during the period and provide an analysis of results of the revolution. They introduce food supply and settlement, and civilization and trade.

The Neolithic Revolution involved far more than the adoption of a limited set of food-producing techniques. It provided surplus of food and it created the division of labor, trading economies, political structures, and hierarchical ideologies. The Old World was the pioneer at domesticating crops and animals to support and live off of, to survive. Animals were used as food but also used to pick food as well, so they worked for twice the help. The New World New World grew their own crops as source of food but did not have much of animals help to aid the process, which then made them more dependent on space around them as opposed to being able to start their own civilization anywhere they

The Neolithic Revolution was critical for the rise of civilization. For example, the development of agriculture during the Neolithic Revolution, led to a surplus of food. Once people had enough food to stop the previous process of hunting and gathering, they were able to live in one place. This in

The Neolithic Revolution started in Mesopotamia, which is located in the river valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates in 12,000 to 8,000 B.C.E. due to the creation of agriculture leading certain societies to urban settlements and civilizations.

Though the Neolithic Revolution is irreversible, it is helpful to know that we don’t always have to grab an opportunity and follow through with it. But it’s better to know whether or not advancing

The Neolithic revolution was a period of time that occurred during 10,000 - 9,000 B.C.E. Humans made the transition from hunting and gathering and being nomadic to being sedentary. During the neolithic revolution humans also developed social classes where the people who watched others work were at the top and the people who worked at the bottom. People have different opinions on the shift from hunting and gathering to agriculture during the neolithic revolution. Thinking about all of the things humans received from the neolithic revolution, it was not worth it. Human society would have been better off without the disease, the social classes, and starvation. Therefore, while the neolithic revolution brought many beneficial things to human society such as agriculture, and permanent housing, it brought more harm than good like modern day diseases and social classes.

The Neolithic Revolution was a major change in the way people lived in 10,000 BCE. The transformation from hunting and gathering to agriculture led to stable settlement, the establishment of social classes, and inevitable boost of civilization. The Neolithic Revolution began with farming. The people domesticated animals and plants.

The surplus of food from farming during the Neolithic Revolution had an enormous impact on the lives of humanity and made the very existence of civilization possible; the greatest changes caused by this surplus of food were permanent settlements, specialized skills, and the development of complex social hierarchies. In the Paleolithic Period, before farming was developed, humans had to rely on savaging the land for their food, foraging for plants, nuts, berries, meat, and fish. “Over the last 10,000 years, the predominant result has been a shift from hunting-gathering to food production” (Diamond 109). After the ice age ended 10,000 years ago, land hidden beneath the glaciers was revealed and more water became accessible due to the melting

The appearance of urban living was one of the most influential developments in the Neolithic Revolution. Appearing as a result of another important advancement, agriculture, it resulted in a vast, albeit gradual, shift from nomadism and hunting-and-gathering to a sedentary lifestyle. Most importantly, this evolution would result in changes to social hierarchies, occupations in society, and the environment.

The Neolithic Revolution began in Southwest Asia and other areas during 10,000 B.C.E to 3, 000 B.C.E (Council for Economic Education, 2012). The Neolithic Revolution also known as the Agricultural Revolution was a new way of life. Our society is constantly changing and moving forward. As a part of human culture, humans strive to learn, discover, create and evolve (Barber, n.d.). As a society, we have made many technological and social advancements, but have we ever taken the time to appreciate the past? The Neolithic Revolution is where it all began. Prior to the Neolithic Revolution, the early humans lived in the Paleolithic Age. This presentation will display life before the Neolithic Revolution and the shift that lead to some of the first social and technological advancements in history.

People are generally inclined to associate the Neolithic period with better stone tools. However, this period also brought a series of advancements assisting individuals go from being hunter-gatherers to being herders and farmers. "With this change came settled villages, the wheel, pottery, and more" (Mindsparks 8).

All throughout history, humans have come up with innovations that have brought both positive and negative changes to the way people live. This all started around 10,000 BCE, when people developed agriculture. The first nomads started off by moving from place to place, hunting and gathering food… but as people developed agriculture, they saved a lot more time. After agriculture developed, the humans learned many things such as farming and taming wild animals for their own use. This time in history was called the Neolithic Revolution… which lasted about 6,000 years, until 4,000 BCE. The big change in the way people got their food and how they lived, resulted to positive and negative changes of human innovations of the Neolithic Revolution. So,

Prior to living in homes build to with stand the test of time, growing food their food source, and raising animals, humans were nomads who followed their food source around and were hunters and gathers. Although it took many years, from 8000B.C. to 3000B.C. for humans to go from hunters and gathers to a more common day life as we now know it, the result is referred to as the Neolithic Revolution the begins of human civilization. As the people of this time began to settle down and they began to both farm the land and domesticate animals for the better of the community. Along with the development of these communities as for the first time began to create social class among the many different roles they played in their community. Because
