NEOLOTHIC OR NEW STONE AGE
The Neolithic innovation is of two activities related to agriculture
and livestock. These two events are linked and thus permissible
for a man to perform for the first time a productive economy.
In the Neolithic Age, he was able to wrest the nature of what
he wanted by acting on it and has established its control
over the food supply. He did this by planting, cultivating
and improving the selection, edible grass, roots and trees.
The Ides of sacrificing some seeds to get much more than that,
is an idea in human history. In wheat and barley were at the
root of this agricultural economy. The man has chosen or been
forced to choose between them because the wild herbs that
were nutritious and could easily be stored. Their performance
is high and their culture did not require much work.
Man learned control and the use of certain animals and provided them with forage
and protection. He obtained from animals, meat, milk, leather,
wool and manure.
The human civilization characterized by agriculture and livestock
and domesticated it can only thrive on river banks, which
provided alluvial soil and water. Also agriculture led to
the formation of village communities. Thus, the Neolithic
Age, marks the beginning of the village of civilization. The
villages of the Neolithic Age gradually replaced hunters communities
as units of human society. Because of the abundance of food
supply to the population has increased tremendously. For the
first time in history, there has been surplus production.
This led to the relative autonomy of village communities.
The surplus was used for trade with other communities that
were lower in the scale of farming and the production, but
could provide things that farming communities needed. Thus,
agriculture and livestock, which together Farming Technology
ushered in an era of great progress man has made the transition
from the collection of food to food production.
Other largest technology Neolithic Age are wood working, making pots and manufacture
of textiles. As the ice age is coming to an end, the tundra
steppe and began to be replaced by forests rich in timber.
The man was attempted to use this precious resource. He created
polished stone. Its purpose is reduced in order to give a
strong edge. It is then attached to the end of a stick to
form an ax. This has replaced the "hand ax" or flint
of the Old Stone Age. This is the beginning of the woodwork.
The Neolithic villages have become centers of the textile industry,
the manufacture of clothing and linen wool. This required a
considerable amount of technical knowledge regarding the fibrous
substance as flax, cotton and wool. Otherwise, it was necessary
to master spinning and weaving. It involves the possession of
the instruments necessary for them to the profession. Weaving
is clearly a new adaptation of the basket decision. The forms
or models produced in weaving and the number of nets involved
in the production are essentially a geometric character. This
led to a better understanding of the relationship between the
shape and number. The Neolithic Age broke new grounds of
technological change. The man Neolithic Paleolithic added
to his heritage chemistry pot making, the physics of spinning,
mechanical trades, botany flax and cotton (Agricultural Botany),
biochemistry baking and brewing, reproductive biology animal,
geometry and arithmetic. More than anything else the relationship
between seed yield and labor caused by man extended the design
of cause and effect that would later become the basis of a
rational and scientific consciousness. |
