TOOLS
Hunters and gatherers made tools to survive and not to starve. They made bags, hand axes, awls, and drills. Also as time pasted by humans developed more complex tools such as bows made of wood and tools to hunt and butcher animals. Hunters and gatherers are nomads which are moving place to place. Women would gather plants and herds for medicine, they would also care children and domesticate the plants and start agriculture. Agriculture is developed where waters are available. Soon irrigation, fertile soil, and other new things had been made also they had surplus of food and supplies. There was also fire which provide heat, light and to cook meat. Also fire gave them protection from animals. Early humans thought there would be spirits in rocks, trees, and animals which are all nature.Cave paintings showed about how they lived by drawing bulls, stallions, and bison which are big and strong animals. As the village harvested more they were able to support and help more people. The first specialization for the early humans were potters and weavers and they traded potters and weavers for exchange of food. And also for the potters and weaver they had many different kinds of design. As they raised animals they even started a settled population and agricultural surpluses. Archaeologists believe that people bury their dead body under their floors of their houses.
