During the period 10,000 – 8000 B.C., fundamental changes occurred in the ways human beings lived and provided for themselves. This was considered the Neolithic Era and the many changes that occurred during this period are often referred to as the Neolithic Revolution. The Neolithic Revolution occurred first in the so-called “Fertile Crescent” or Mesopotamia in what is now modern Iraq (www.angelfire.com/ca2/kushana/Neolithic.html). Prior to the Neolithic Era, humans were in a food-gathering mode. The men were hunters and would kill animals for food and clothing. This is shown through cave paintings at that time. Pictures of animals would be painted on walls deep within caves. These pictures were very realistic and depicted animals such as bison, mammoths, reindeer, wild horses, wooley rhinos and oxen. The paintings are extremely naturalistic and demonstrate the artists’ abilities to record an image when there was no longer a model before their eyes (pg 14 textbook).
