This is really scary! Hunting and gathering is terrible! I wish I could just have food by my side every day!
Rawr! Food!
Starting to make permanent shelters
Its so cold, I'm freezing!
Ugh I just want something to stay in. I'm almost there I guess.
Discovering Agriculture
With my new farm I'm able to get food right away. This is great!
Transporting humans is hard, at least I get food.
Food was hard to come by and hunting was dangerous. Most hunter-gatherers would stress and worry about what their next meal would be.
Developing new jobs
With this new weaving job, I am able to help out and grow my community. This is great!
Nomads started creating permanent shelters to live in. This provided comfort and protection from dangerous animals and rain.
Establishing Communities
I know right! I can't wait to start a new life with nothing to be scared of!
With our new communities, we can start a successful society! This is great!
People started practicing agriculture by making farms with many supplies like corn. They also stared domesticating animals like horses or donkeys to help them with many tasks.
Beginning to trade
This trade isn't fair! I expect two corns for this rare food that I have!
Yes! Trade two! That potato looks so good.
With new jobs, people were able to get a lot of work done. Now that people had a stable food supply not everyone had to farm. As new jobs emerged like weaving or making pottery, life became easier and more efficient.
What is he doing now? I just want to go home and sleep.
As communities emerged, new opportunities also came along with it. Now that people lived together they could be more productive and create more supplies. Instead of being on the their own, they had people to help.
Where did you guys come from?!
Trade was very beneficial because it introduced new items and expanded what people had. It also helped grow their communities because trade provided new supplies.
