The mesolithic period is termed as the age of transition from the palaeolithic to the neolithic age

Explanation:

  • The Middle Stone Era is an archeological term used to describe particular cultures that fell between the Paleolithic Period & the Neolithic period. From the Paleolithic era to the Neolithic the changes that had occurred. During this period, minor changes from culture to big changes such as economics & agriculture were made.
  • The Paleolithic period was solely an age of hunting & gathering however the development of agriculture helped to build permanent colonies in the Mesolithic era. Domestication of animals and plants distinguishes the later Neolithic period.
  • A distinctive feature between these cultures is the type of tool used. Mesolithic tools were usually composites produced with small chipped stone instruments known as microliths & re-touched bladelets. The Paleolithic used more primitive stone treatments, and the Neolithic used much more polished instead of chipped stone tools.
  • The arts from this period mirror the transitions to a warmer climate & adaptation to a rather sedentary lifestyle, plant consumption & population size— all indications of a transition to farming and ultimately to the Neolithic period.
  • Mesolithic people were frequently forced to migrate to rock shelters. A specific type of artistic development is difficult to find during the Mesolithic era and art forms formed during the Upper Paleolithic phase (last Paleolithic era) probably continued.These comprised cave engravings & paintings, early architecture, & small sculptural artifacts.
