Prehistory Objectives
Humanities reviews how Paleolithic individuals transformed into a Neolithic Village and how our personal ancestral connection to it. It also surveys how the Afrikan, European, and South American communities' unique formations and customs distinguished themselves from each other. Tracing the impact of farming on the development of settlements among early peoples helps us describe the necessary circumstances for a Neolithic Village to transform into an Empire.
