Neolithic village life, as expected, was heavily involved agriculture. Yet, so was life in a city in the Early/First Civilizations. How different, and similar, were the two?

Additionally, the inhabitants held occupations fitted to support the village. Farming was discovered when discarded seeds sprouted and

Definition of neolithic people: The Neolithic was a period in the development of human technology, beginning about 10,200 BC, according to the ASPRO chronology, in some parts of the Middle East, and later in other parts of the world and ending between 4500 and 2000 BC.
