Since they did not have to waste their time looking for food, they were able to learn new skills and develop new ways of thinking about their world. Grains were able to be stored easier than meat. It was now possible to reserve large quantities of food, resulting in a growth in population. People farmed, settled in villages, and built permanent homes. The Neolithic people also learned to hunt, farm, and cook.
