Stone Age

Humans transitioning from being hunting and gathering nomads that would wander looking for food to being masters of full fledged civilizations was one of the biggest changes in all of human history. Now this change in history was caused by first humans ability to create tools and mastering technology. The mastering of technology played a huge role in the development in civilizations however science wasn’t as much of a concern to people in prehistory and didn 't become very common till the first civilizations

art of two different cultures, which include Paleolithic Art and Neolithic Art. Paleolithic Art began during the time period of the Ice Age that dates back to about 10,00 to 40, 000 years. Moreover, as the Ice Age began to decline, new vegetation appeared and an increase of other animal populations allowed the growth of Neolithic Art referred to as the New Stone Age. Even though these cultures were divided by different time periods they both have some similar techniques. For example, both regions had

There is much information that is unknown to many about the world. It is reasonable that discovery would fascinate many because of the ability to gain knowledge about the world. Learning about ancestors can bring knowledge about how people in the past had lived and how it can be used to compare today 's society and culture. Written documents enhance the ability to understand the past. These references are not available before the activity writing and recording was done. This time period before writing

and awareness of the capabilities of female can be clearly extracted and observed. Overseas in Austria, you can find the sculpture of The Venus of Willendorf, which is dated back to about 24,000-22,000 BC, being inclusive of the Paleolithic age (the Old Stone Age). She was carved from limestone and is only eleven centimeters in height, small enough to be held in palm of the hand. The Venus of Willendorf is one of the oldest and most popular of all the similar fertility figures known in prehistoric

The Paleolithic Era, also known as the “Old Stone Age,” marked many advancements in prehistory. Us, homo-sapiens, evolved in the Paleolithic Era. During the Paleolithic Era we developed opposable thumbs, religious beliefs, a spoken language and much more. During the Paleolithic Era the nomads were created. Nomads were people who migrated in search of food. During the many years of the existence of nomads they changed their lifestyle from repetition of the same activities, to many advancements causing

tools & technology? What functions did they serve? Some of the earliest tools invented by humans include the yucca stalk and stick, stone tools, potter’s wheel, wheel, plow, and metal tools. The yucca stalk and stick were primarily found in the Neolithic Age to help start fires that humans can keep warm and cook food with. Stone tools were found in the Paleolithic Age, which helped with hunting and war. The potter’s wheel, first established in 6000 B.C.E, allowed for pottery to be made, which aided

The Stone Age was divided into two eras, The Paleolithic and the Neolithic. During the Paleolithic Era, humans mostly foraged for food, used crude tools, and depended heavily on the environment around them. By the time the Neolithic Era began, people were developing more complex technology, social organization, using fire, and living sedentary lifestyles because of the discovery of agriculture. During the Paleolithic era, hominids used the natural materials in the environment around them (mostly

Neanderthal Man survived through the Ice Age. They are thought to have had fire. Neanderthals lived side by side with modern humans for over 10,000 years. There are many theories on why the Neanderthals disappeared. Most of them involve Homo Sapiens in one way or another, considering that the

The first article that will be analyzed will be Equality and polyamory: why early humans weren’t The Flintstones. This particular article from The Guardian, describes a study that was released from the University College London. The study delved into the topic of male and female equality in prehistoric times, and questioned the belief that humans have always existed in nuclear families. Because of this, the study also challenges our understanding of human history. Mark Dyble, the study’s lead author
