People of the Old Stone Age Hunters & Gatherers People of the Old Stone Age Hunters & Gatherers Aim: What are the characteristics of the Paleolithic Age? Do Now: What does the word stem “Paleo” mean? Hint: It’s the opposite of “Neo”

The earliest humans probably lived in Africa. They spread to the rest of the world over the next tens of thousands of years as they hunted and gathered food to survive.

Getting Food

Without becoming food!

Ugh…Me so Hungry!

Groups of related families united in bands. They collected roots, nuts, fruits, and seeds. They also cooperated together for basic needs such as for food and shelter Hunted & Gathered for Food / Nomadic

The animals they killed provided: meat for food bones for tools hides for clothing

They set up seasonal camps in caves or rock shelters wherever the animals were plentiful.

People (Bands) migrated when food (plants or animals) became scarce in one location. We’re outta here! Yaba-daba-doo!

Spreading Through the World

Reasons for the Migrations Couldn’t find enough food Growing number of bands Changing climate Follow animals on the move (hunting)

Ice Age About 35,000 years ago Ice sheets covered about 1/3 of the earth Result…ocean level lower & land bridges made migration to various parts of world possible About 35,000 years ago Ice sheets covered about 1/3 of the earth Result…ocean level lower & land bridges made migration to various parts of world possible

And it made a cool movie too…

Cave Paintings are Artifacts too.

Stone Age Artifacts

Stone Tools

Here we see our good friend, Ugamug, hard at work using his tools. Watch out for your thumb!

What have we learned?

1.How did early people get the food they needed to survive?

2. Why did early people work together?

Paleolithic - Old Stone Age Review People hunted & gathered for food People were nomadic (moved from place to place) People made tools made of Stone People expressed themselves with cave painting art People worked together for survival

3. Besides food, for what purposes might early people have worked together?
