Answer 1

Answer:

Paleolithic (or Old Stone Age), Mesolithic (or Middle Stone Age)

Explanation:

Divided into three periods: Paleolithic (or Old Stone Age), Mesolithic (or Middle Stone Age)and Neolithic (or New Stone Age), this era is marked by the use of tools by our early human ancestors (who evolved around 300,000 B.C.) and the eventual transformation from a culture of hunting and gathering to farming and food production. During this era, early humans shared the planet with a number of now-extinct hominin relatives, including Neanderthals and Denisovans.
