Neolithic Revolution In response to warming climates at the end of the last Ice Age, from about 10,000 years ago, some groups adapted to the environment in new ways, while others remained hunter-foragers.
Settled agriculture appeared in several different parts of the world. The switch to agriculture created a more reliable, but not necessarily more diversified, food supply.

Where? How? Why?
Fertile Crescent
Possibly as a response to climatic change, permanent agricultural villages emerged first in the lands of the eastern Mediterranean.
Agriculture emerged at different times in Mesopotamia, the Nile River Valley and Sub-Saharan Africa, the Indus River Valley, the Yellow River or Huang He Valley, Papua New Guinea, Mesoamerica, and the Andes.

● Like agriculturalists, pastoralists tended to be more socially stratified than hunter-foragers.
● Because pastoralists were mobile, they rarely accumulated large amounts of material
● possessions, which would have been a hindrance when they changed grazing areas.
● The pastoralists’ mobility allowed them to become an important conduit for technological change as they interacted with settled populations.
Developed in the grasslands of Afro-Eurasia

Labor Adjustments
Agricultural communities had to work cooperatively to clear land and create the water control systems needed for crop production.

Environmental Effects
• Use of water resources
• Clearing of land
• Use of building materials
• Roads
• Use of fuel materials
• Animals, disease
• Mining

Let’s put it together.

Food Supply and Society
● new classes of artisans and warriors
● development of elites
Surpluses of food and other goods led to specialization of labor

Technological Innovations
● Pottery● Plows● Woven textiles● Metallurgy● Wheels and wheeled vehicles
How did these technological innovations lead to improvements in agricultural production, trade, and transportation?
