Question

what do you understand by new lithic revolution

Answer 1

The Neolithic Revolution, NeolithicDemographic Transition, or Agricultural Revolution, was the wide-scale transition of many human cultures from a lifestyle of hunting and gathering to one of agriculture and settlement, making possible an increasingly larger population.

Answer 2

The Neolithic revolution (New Stone Age)was the first agricultural revolution. It was a gradual change from nomadic hunting and gathering communities and bands to agriculture and settlement.[1] This period is described as a "revolution" because it changed the way of life of communities which made the change. It occurred in different prehistoric human societies at different times. Many societies changed 9–7 thousand years ago.

The term refers to the general time period over which these developments took place. It also applies to the changes which took place: the adoption of early farming techniques, cropcultivation, and the domestication of animals.[2] The Neolithic Revolution is important for developments in social organization and technology.

The Neolithic revolution led to living in permanent or semi-permanent settlements. Because of this fewer people led a nomadiclifestyle. To be able to know who the crops grown belonged to, the concept of land ownership was developed. The natural environment was changed, population densities grew, and people ate more vegetableand cereal foods in their diet. Hierarchiesdeveloped in society. Grain was stored, and could be traded. Surplus production from good crop yields helped societies survive bad years.
