Neolithic Revolution (~10,000 BC)
The Neolithic (New Stone) Revolution occurs about 10,000 years ago and dramatically
changes the way that early humans live. Two important factors determine the
Neolithic Revolution:
-The development of agriculture.
-The domestication of animals.
These two changes allow people to stay in one spot instead of going from place to place
following their main food source (animals). Somehow Neolithic people learn how to
____________ crops and keep and raise ____________ for meat. This means the
population can grow faster.
For hundreds of thousands of years _____________ depend on nature for their
survival. Food comes from ____________ plants and animals. Then a new way of
providing food emerges. This revolutionary advancement is that of farming. Instead of
_____________ animals and _______________ fruit and plants from the
environments where they live, humans learn to simply grow their own food.
Grains such as _______________, _____________, ______________ and
______________ are grown in different parts of the world. Wild animals are also
domesticated. ______________ are utilized for their meat and milk. Cattle,
____________________, and _______________ provide a source of food for the
support of a group of humans.
The Neolithic, (Greek neos=new, lithos=stone, or "New Stone Age") is traditionally the
last part of the Stone Age. Because of the profound differences in the way humans
interact once agriculture begins, the New Stone Age is also called the Neolithic
Revolution.

Read the text one more time and discuss the following questions:
Food for thought!!!
Why can the population
grow faster in the Neolithic?

3. CAUSES OF CHANGES.
Pre-task.
What continents can you see in the following map?
Use the web page http://www.yourchildlearns.com/online-atlas.htm to look up
and write the names of the countries and the rivers that appear on the map.
Listen to your teacher and read this text about the map.
THE FERTILE CRESCENT
The lands between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, as well as the
lands of the Nile River Delta have very fertile soil. This area is known
as the "Fertile Crescent", that means a fertile arch. It is a place
where the weather is warm, which is without high mountains, and
where the rivers flood from time to time, so the soil is renewed.
Agriculture and cattle farming begin here.
1º de ESO: The Neolithic: A revolution
11
Explain why agriculture and cattle farming begin in this area. To do so, match the
causes and the consequences:
CAUSES
CONSEQUENCES
The land is rich and fertile
it is easy for man to adapt.
The weather is warm
so
crops are easy to grow.
There are no high mountains
soil is always fertile and crops are strong.
The rivers flood from time to time
flat land is easy to farm.
Listen and repeat these words. Write the correct word under each picture :
stone axe
arrow heads
sickle
stone mill
hoe
jar
clothes

Task.
Listen and read the text below. Pay especial attention to the words in blue:
Village Development
With the advent of farming and domesticated animals to feed people, life becomes
much easier for early humans. As a result, many more humans survive the difficulties of life.
The population quickly grows from around 2 million humans on the Earth, to more than 90
million. They also hunt, but women work growing crops and gathering fruit.
Farming allows people to build small villages near rivers, or wherever the ground is
fertile enough for crops to grow. Archeologists have found some villages that are believed to
be more than 8,000 years. Some of these ancient villages, such as Jericho, still survive to this
day. They have no streets, the “houses” are next to each other and they do not have doors nor
windows, only in the roof, to protect them from wild animals. They are made of clay, wood and
branches. Domesticated animals live near humans, inside fences.
1º de ESO: The Neolithic: A revolution
13
With an abundance of food, and more permanent shelters, people have more time to
devote to the development of new technologies. Better farming equipment, such as the ox
driven plow are invented. The wheel aids humans greatly in transporting goods from one
location to another. The loom allows people to weave cloth, and create finer and more
comfortable clothing.
Now let´s work with the text.
First draw a Neolithic village according with the description given in the text.
Write the main ideas of the text. Use the words in blue to help you.

Task.
Listen and read this text.
THOUGHT AND RELIGION
Agriculture permits the growth of the human population and its concentration into villages.
Neolithic religion reflects the new interest in food production as they now know the secret of
reproducing food through controlled implantation of the seed .
The reference here is to the seasonal performance of fertility rituals. Because of the
importance of her function in the life of the Neolithic agricultural community, Earth Mother is
often the most important spirit or god within the community.
It is now believed , in general, that Neolithic people tend to emphasize the FEMALE
PRINCIPLE OF LIFE: the earth or womb out of which their crops grow and which life depends
on it as the true source of life. It is represented in small statues with big wombs and breasts.
Women are extremely important in this culture.
Old people represent experience and wisdom and they are also crucial for the community,
which it is now divided into real families, not big groups or clans.
They bury their dead in the same position as they are inside a mother´s womb, and it is
believed that mega-structures with giant stones are devoted to the dead and to nature. We
can find amazing examples in places like Stonehenge, in Great Britain, or in Carnac and Arles, in
France, or in Los Millares (Almeria –Spain).
Tools for measuring the passage of time are created, for example calendars, star charts and
sundials. This helps farmers track when the growing season would arrive, and when the best
time to plant crops would be.
Discuss about the text and the pictures:
- Why have fertility statues got such big
bellies and breasts? Is there any
connection between fertility and
agriculture?
- Why are old people and women so
important?
- Why are nature and fertility divinities?
