Farming Vs Hunting
Neolithic Revolution VS Paleolithic Era?
I have a question. I’m doing this history project and I surf the web but I’m still confuse. The sites and my notes are different a bit. Anyways, the question is: Neolithic Revolution is when they started farming, while Paleolithic Era is when they hunt and migrated from place to place? If that’s ture, why does it says: “Paleothic humans are first human” and “Neanderthals are ape-like”? Shouldn’t it be the other way around?
Paleolithic Era can be translated from the Latin as a Stone Age. It is called so because the ancestors of the modern humans started to use the artificial tools. They were made of stone ( of silikon – more exactly). But those humans weren’t the modern, they are called “homo habilis” (“skillful human”) though they were the first creatures to get the word “homo – human” in their name, because of their ability not just use something like stones and sticks but to make tools for different purpose on theirown.
During the Paleolithic Era human first developed to “homo erectus” ( the first orthograde human), than the Cro-Magnon men (the modern humans) and the Neanderthals apeeared (both are “homo sapience”). The Neanderthals are called more ape-like just in the comparison with the modern humas. They had biger superciliary archуs and jaws etc, but they still were more perfect than “homo habilis” and “homo erectus” .
By the beggining of the Neolithic Age (around 6000 years ago) the Neanderthals died out and the Cro-Magnon men remained the only humans on the Earth. In that age farming, cattle-breeding and adobe block architecture appeared though the humans still used the stonemade tools.
