EARLY HUMAN SOCIETIES

LIFE AS A HUNTERS AND GATHERERS

• Early humans hunted for food
• They also gather plant to eat
• After they killed the animals, they take the skin
• With the skin, they make clothing
• When animals and plants get scarce, they have to move

AGRICULTRAL REVOLUTION

• Humans learned to domesticate animals and learned how to farm
• Now, humans don't have to move along with the animals
• Early humans used a technique called slash-and-burn
• They cut and burned down trees to clear land for crops
• The ashes provided nutrients for the plants to grow well

FIRST COMMUNITIES

• People began to develop special skills
• People began to make villages and goverments were established
• A goverment is a person who has leadership and power above others
• Improved agriculture began surpluses in food and had more than what they need
• They began trading with other villages for things they didn't have much of
