WEEK 2

WEEK 2
September 4

During the Neolithic era, agriculture began to bloom. This time period started off with simple rituals. Humans hunted and gathered plants and animals around them to survive. Soon, agriculture, as well as human life, began to revolutionize. Simple hunting and gathering received a humanly touch and transformed into a more complex routine. Humans began to farm bigger and better plants and crops. They started customizing their personal land, turning them into their own gated communities using the land they owned. They then only farmed specific plants and animals, those that would give off more resources for survival. This method is called domestication. It is where we get the term "domesticated plants" or "domesticated animals" from. The domesticated plants and animals could no longer survive without human support, due to the way their treated and raised under the arms of humans. Landowners, more specifically farmers, began to use their land to its fullest potential. Instead of planting a low amount of crops, farmers packed their land with as much food as they could grow. This created more resources and attracting more people, but it required a lot more work and effort. Agriculture continues to grow today.
