Paleolithic vs. Neolithic

The oldest human footprints in the world were unearthed at Laetoli, near Olduvai Gorge, in Tanzinia. These footprints led Owen Lovejoy to conclude that even these early hominids walked with an upright, striding gait just as modern humans do.

Lucy - is one of the oldest and most complete skeletons of human ancestry, which was discovered by Don Johanson in Ethiopia's Afar Triangle.

Characteristics of Paleolithic Period The people were hunters and gatherers They lived in small groups of about 20-30 people Followed animal & plan life Developed simple tools from stone, bone or wood

Out of Africa

Neolithic Period Live in one place—permanent villages—near rivers Farming, plants, raising animals Artisans—jobs

Characteristics of Neolithic Period Cities Gov’t Religion Economy Social Structure Writing

Skara Brae An early Neolithic village
