 The Neolithic period was part of the Stone Age, a time
period in which hominids primarily used stones as tools and
weapons. Dating from approximately two million years ago
to 3000 B.C., the Stone Age consisted of three time periods.
 The Paleolithic Period or Old Stone Age
 The Mesolithic Period or Middle Stone Age
 The Neolithic Period or New Stone Age.
•Abstract
• The Neolithic Age or New Stone Age was a period in the
development of human technology, beginning about
9500 BC in the Middle East. The Neolithic was began with
the rise of farming, which produced the "Neolithic
Revolution" and ended when metal tools became
widespread in the Copper Age or Bronze Ag.

• Neolithic Period spread over the world in various time periods. It came
to Fertile Crescent around 12,000 BC to 9,000 BC; North Africa around
6,000 BC; Europe around 6,500 BC to 5,500 BC; South and East Asia
around 7,500 BC to 5,000 BC and America around 4500 BC.
We can define the impacts of Neolithic age in
several aspects.
A Settled Life
Agriculture
Technology
Infrastructural Development
Clothing
•Impacts of Neolithic Age in Society
• The way we live today, settled in homes, close to
other people in towns and cities, protected by laws,
eating food grown on farms, and with leisure time to
learn, explore and invent is all a result of the Neolithic
revolution, which occurred approximately 11,500-
5,000 years ago.
•A Settled Life
Most of the archeologists believe that the Neolithic
agriculture and cattle breeding is the most important
and the most revolutionary innovation in the history of
mankind.
•Agriculture
Neolithic people were skilled farmers, manufacturing a
range of tools necessary for the tending, harvesting and
processing of crops and food production.
•Technology
• Neolithic peoples in the
Levant, Anatolia, Syria,
northern Mesopotamia
and Central Asia were also
accomplished builders,
utilizing mud-brick to
construct houses and
villages. At Catal Hoyuk,
houses were plastered and
painted with elaborate
scenes of humans and
animals.
•Infrastructural Development
Skara Brea, Scotland. Evidence of home
furnishings.
• Most clothing appears to have been made of animal
skins, as indicated by finds of large numbers of bone
and antler pins which are ideal for fastening leather.
•Clothing
• In conclusion the Neolithic Revolution was a major
period for people in this world. It created a new way of
living for many people and helped advance the way
people survived. The Neolithic Revolution created many
inventions still used today such as calendars, farming,
clothing’s, and domesticating.
•Conclusion
Thank You All. 
•Thanks for patience hearing.
