Domestication of plants & animals When humans began to control and use animals, they were able to use them for farming. Experts call this PASTORALISM Also, humans began to grow plants so that they could feed themselves. This is referred to as CULTIVATION

Over time, more and more people began to stay in one spot, leading to dense populations. This is where we see the beginnings of civilizations.

Surplus food production MORE THAN YOU NEED As farmers began to improve their farming techniques, they were able to have a SURPLUS of food. This means not everyone had to worry about farming.
