AGRICULTURAL REVOLUTION-started in the Fertile Crescent, whose hilly region had the right combo of water, soil, climate, weather and mammals to capture for domestication. Also in Africa after the ice age, the lands became grasslands where people settled and domesticated cattle. In the Fertile Crescent people gathered more and more food from wild grain. The constant supply of food promoted fertility which leads to population growth. They also learned that the seeds of crops would…
Jared Diamond makes a compelling case for why “the adoption of agriculture was in many ways a catastrophe” in his 1987 Discover Magazine article “The Worst Mistake in the History of the Human Race,” however I am not convinced. An Agricultural Revolution is a “significant change in agriculture that occurs when there are discoveries, inventions, or new technologies that change production” (The Editors of Encyclopedia Britannica, 2015) and the development of agriculture has been a fundamental part of the march of civilization. The Agricultural Revolution was not a catastrophe from which we have never recovered, it was the groundwork for the rise of civilization.

The Neolithic Agricultural Revolution took place in the beginning of 9000 B.C.E. This revolution changes the concept of farming and hunting compared to the Paleolithic Era when food was gather rather than being cultivated on developed settlements.

Towards the end of Pleistocene and the beginning of the Holocene, agricultural societies arose. Between 10,000 and 12,000 years ago in the Middle East, and later Asia and Africa, a radical shift occurred that changed human subsistence permanently (DeMello 131). This shift is called the Neolithic Revolution and it led to modern subsistence agriculture used to provide food to humans and many domesticated non-human animals today. The Neolithic Revolution was a step towards modern farming but did not, however, eradicate hunter gatherer communities, as some remain today (DeMello 132).…
In the Paleolithic Period, there was no no agriculture, no surplus food and no civilization. For tens of thousands of years, humans for nomads which meant that they would only stay in one place for a couple weeks or months. They moved constantly in search of a new source of animals to kill and plants to gather. This is why they were called hunter and gathers.…
I ranked agricultural intensification first on my list of the seven most important aspects of a civilization. I did this because, agricultural intensification allowed Mesopotamians to manipulate their land for the purpose of producing large amounts of food. Agricultural intensification allowed the people of Mesopotamia to thrive as they had plenty of food to eat and store. I ranked agricultural intensification first because it allowed the government to feed its people and as a result give its population a chance to grow. As the population grows more people can work and the civilization can advance, through specialization of trades.…

Before the Neolithic revolution, women were more matriarchal, during the Neolithic revolution, men and women had the same amount of work, after the Neolithic revolution, men were more patriarchal.…
