The development of agriculture fundamentally changed human societies. In this lesson, we'll examine a few of the major changes, including some challenges created by the rise of farming.

The Neolithic Revolution

Where do you get your food? I'm guessing that most of you have the same answer as me: from the grocery store. Okay, fine, from the drive through. The point is, we expect food to be readily available. We expect our society to produce food through agricultural practices, and we expect there to always be enough to sustain our population. We don't expect that we'll have to move every season to follow herds of wild game. For the vast majority of human history, that's how people lived. They were nomadic, meaning they did not have permanently settled societies. Then, around 12,000 years ago, something started to change. People in various parts of the world discovered that they could control the growth of wild plants, thus ensuring that they had enough food without having to move. We call the rise of farming and the changing patterns in society that came out of this the Neolithic revolution. In the end, the domestication of plants and introduction of farming changed a lot more than just where people got their food.

Changes to Society

Okay, let's break down the ways that human societies changed during the Neolithic revolution. First and foremost is the change from nomadic to sedentary life. A sedentary society is one that does not move around; it is permanently settled in one place. When early humans began farming, they were able to produce enough food that they no longer had to migrate to their food source. This meant they could build permanent structures, and develop villages, towns, and eventually even cities.

Closely connected to the rise of settled societies was an increase in population. The ability to farm also meant a greater ability to control the amount of food produced, which meant that for the first time in human history, there was a surplus of food. This, along with the lower rates of fatal injuries that were common amongst nomadic societies, led to population booms. For the first time, there was enough food to sustain larger populations, and those small settlements turned into some pretty sizeable cities.
