Paleolithic Vs Neolithic Era

The period described as the Stone Age has been calculated as beginning about 2,000,000 BCE. During the Stone Age human society experienced the most fundamental changes, the most important of which was the massive yet lengthy transition from cave and rural dwelling and later to the more organized communities in towns and cities. The Stone Age is divided into two main periods: the Paleolithic period and the Neolithic period. Each of these periods is based on the sophistication of the tools our ancestors made.
The Paleolithic period is define as “Old Stone Age” comes from Greek words Palaios and Lithos. It lasted until around 10,000 B.C. Paleolithic people survived as hunter-gatherers. People grubbed food from the earth with their bare hands, then used simple tools made from stones or animal bones. Paleolithic people lived in temporary shelters like tents or caves because they were nomads who does not have a permanent home and moves around a lot
They started making tools out of metal instead of stone and it made a huge difference in lifestyle along with the development of new technologies for farming and herding such as plows, irrigation systems, etc. Neolithic people were not nomadic. They considered as settled communities. Human also learned to tame animals, probably because they were quick to learn that animals could be used to do much of the work on a farm. They learned how to make many new things like: jewelry, pottery, bigger houses, better clothing, and stronger tools. Trade began during the Neolithic Era. The most significant change that took place with the Neolithic revolution was a dramatic increase in population. Gender roles changed. In the Neolithic revolution, the work that produced food became relegated to men, and household chores became the women’s job. Men came to be the dominant gender in
