Chapter Intro What is civilization? These cave paintings in Lascaux, France, illustrate the animals early people hunted 17,000 years ago during the Ice Age. Images like these give us glimpses into the life of early humans. In this chapter, you will learn how humans gradually shifted from temporary to permanent settlements and began establishing civilizations. How do you think the first humans got their food? How would you define civilization?

18
Section 1 Hominids are the earliest humanlike creatures that first appeared in Africa four million years ago and slowly changed over time.Hominids Skeletal remains were found by Louis and Mary Leakey at Olduvai Gorge in 1959. Early Development (cont.)

20
Section 1 –Homo habilis: “handy human” lived 2.5 to 1.6 million years ago larger brain may have used stone tools Early Development (cont.)

25
Section 1 spread around the globe around 100,000 years ago in search of food and hunting grounds, replacing populations in Europe and Asia (“out-of-Africa” theory)“out-of-Africa” theory all human life belongs to this subgroup of human beings Early Development (cont.)
26
A.A B.B C.C D.D Section 1 Which of the following groups of hominids are ordered from those that developed the earliest to those that developed the most recently? A.Neanderthal, Homo sapiens, Homo habilis, Homo erectus B.Homo habilis, Homo sapiens, Neanderthal, Homo erectus C.Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Homo sapiens, Neanderthal D.Homo habilis, Neanderthal, Homo erectus, Homo sapiens
27
Section 1 The Paleolithic Age Early humans used fire, made tools, and adapted to survive.
28
Section 1 The Paleolithic Age refers to the early period of history when humans used stone tools. Paleolithic people were hunter-gatherers who lived a nomadic lifestyle. They made tools, clothing, shelter, and fire. The roles of men and women were probably considered equal due to the division of labor. The Paleolithic Age (cont.)
29
Section 1 The ability to start fire helped Paleolithic humans spread farther around the globe including to colder climates. Art found in caves around the world shows its importance to early humans. The Paleolithic Age (cont.) Chauvet Cave

A.A B.B Section 2-Polling Question Do you agree that the Neolithic Revolution was a revolutionary change? A.Yes B.No
36
Section 2 The Neolithic Revolution Civilization developed from the agricultural revolution of the Neolithic Age.
37
Section 2 The Neolithic Revolution was marked by the shift from hunting of animals and gathering of food to systematic agriculture.systematic agriculture During the Neolithic Age (8000 to 4000 B.C. ) humans began planting crops. The domestication of animals also occurred during this period. domestication The Neolithic Revolution (cont.) Number of Farms in the U.S., 1940–2004
38
Section 2 Spread of agriculture around the world: –8000 B.C. : People in Southwest Asia grew wheat and barley and domesticated pigs, cows, goats, and sheep. –7000 B.C. : Mesoamericans in the Western Hemisphere grew beans, squash, and maize. They domesticated dogs and fowl. The Neolithic Revolution (cont.) Spread of Farming
39
Section 2 –6000 B.C. : In Africa, people grew wheat, barley, yams, and bananas. –5000 B.C. : In China, farmers grew rice and domesticated dogs and pigs. The Neolithic Revolution (cont.) As a result of a steady food supply, Neolithic people began living in settled communities, called Neolithic farming villages.
40
Section 2 In Çatalhüyük, people were able to enter other occupations other than farming. Skilled workers, such as artisans, made weapons and jewelry and traded them with neighboring people.artisans The Neolithic Revolution (cont.)
41
Section 2 Effects of the Neolithic Revolution: –A surplus of food encouraged trade and the division of labor. –Skilled workers, such as artisans, began to emerge. They developed more refined tools, weapons, and farming techniques. The Neolithic Revolution (cont.)
42
Section 2 –Roles of men and women changed. When men’s jobs took them away from settlements, women stayed behind to raise children. Men began to play a more dominant role.Roles –Villages developed into more complex and wealthy societies. To protect their wealth, they built armies and city walls. These farming villages led to the development of cities. The Neolithic Revolution (cont.)
43
Section 2 –Discovery of how to make metal tools brought an end to the Neolithic Age, which was followed by the Bronze Age and the Iron Age. The Neolithic Revolution (cont.)
44
A.A B.B C.C D.D Section 2 Which of the following would not have been found in Neolithic societies? A.Weapons and jewelry B.Sickles and hoes for farming C.Flax and cotton for clothing D.Bronze and iron tools
45
Section 2 Civilization Emerges Some villages grew into cities and became early civilizations.
46
Section 2 A civilization is a complex culture in which large numbers of human beings who share a number of common elements live together.civilizationculture Civilization Emerges (cont.)
47
Section 2 Common characteristics of the new civilizations: –Cities first developed in river valleys. Large-scale farming was needed to feed a large population. –Governments were developed to maintain the food supply, protect the population, and organize and regulate human activity. They were usually led by monarchs.monarchs Civilization Emerges (cont.)
48
Section 2 –Religions were developed to explain the forces of nature and their roles in the world. Priests supervised rituals and became very important people.Priests –Social structures arose based on economic power. There were an upper class of rulers, priests, and warriors; a middle class of free people, farmers, and artisans; and a slave class. Civilization Emerges (cont.)
49
Section 2 –Writing was developed for record keeping and creative expression. –Significant architecture, paintings, and sculptures were seen in new civilizations. Civilization Emerges (cont.)
