This lesson explores the critical shift from the Old Stone Age to the New Stone Age, focusing on how the domestication of plants and animals transformed human lives. It examines the technological advances that enabled farming, the rise of surplus food production, and the emergence of settled communities. Key vocabulary includes domestication, agriculture, excavation sites, and carbon dating. By studying early farming practices, we uncover the implications of these changes for societal organization, trade, and technology that shaped human history over thousands of years.
