Answer 1

The Stone Age: the Palaeolithic PeriodPosted on July 9, 2013 by History In An HourStone is the earliest example of prehistoric human culture that mankind has identified with some certainty. The period described as the Stone Age has been calculated as beginning about 2,000,000 BCE. During the Stone Age human society experienced the most fundamental changes, the most important of which was the massive yet lengthy transition from cave and rural dwelling and later to the more organised communities in towns and cities.

Along the way mankind evolved and in so doing gradually created and improved numerous technological developments. Whether we can refer to early creations such as spears as technological is debatable but they were certainly clever inventions for the time. However, whether clever or merely necessity, it was inevitable that society and technology did eventually evolve alongside each other.

The Stone Age was later perceived as being enormously long, and so was further sub-divided into three periods:

1. Palaeolithic or Old Stone Age                     (2,000,000 – 10,000 BCE)
2. Mesolithic or Middle Stone Age                (10,000 – 5,500 BCE)
3. Neolithic or New Stone Age                       (5,500 – 2,500 BCE)
