Answer:

This paper defines early human society as the early societies that formed in the middle Paleolithic, shortly after homo sapiens sapiens first appeared, and evolved through the Neolithic, when hunter gatherer societies started to experiment with agriculture and form semi-permanent and permanent settlements...

human society could start as recently as 7,000 years ago when we first started to employ agriculture as a primary method of obtaining food and started building large, permanent settlements or as far back as 2,000,000 billion years ago when homo habilis, the distant ancestor of homo sapiens (of which we are homo sapiens sapiens), first appeared. We will define human society as a society that organizes homo sapiens sapiens and thus restrict our discussion to what the archaeological record from the past 100,000 years (give or take 30,000 years) tells us, as our species has been determined to be somewhere between 200,000 and 240,000 years old, and the development of modern homo sapiens sapiens appears to have started in the middle Paleolithic around 100,000 years ago.
