The Mesolithic Period, also known as the Middle Stone Age, lasted from around 10,000 BCE to 8,000 BCE and was a transitional phase between the Paleolithic hunter-gatherer era and the Neolithic Agricultural era. People during this time lived through hunting, fishing, food gathering and later began domesticating animals like dogs. They also discovered the value of grass seeds such as barley and wheat. Tools of this period included large hand axes, spheroids and microlithic stone tools, as well as those made from bone, wood, and animal tusks and horns.

Tools of this period included large hand axes, spheroids and very small microlithic stone tools, as well as those made from bone, wood, and animal tusks and horns.
This document provides a summary of Indian history from the early Stone Age periods through the rise and spread of Buddhism. It describes:
1) The Paleolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic Stone Ages in India and the key characteristics of the people during these periods, including tool use and settlement patterns.
2) The Indus Valley Civilization which emerged around 2500 BC, including its major sites like Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, urban planning, agriculture, trade and crafts.
3) The arrival of the Aryans in India around 1500 BC and the development of the Vedic civilization, including its social structure, economy, important texts like the Rig Veda, and rituals.
The Mesolithic stone age, also known as the middle stone age, occurred between the Paleolithic and Neolithic periods. People during this time lived in wigwam-shaped houses covered in animal skins and wore jewelry made from bones. They used tools like chisels, needles, fish hooks, and club heads made of stone and bone. By domesticating animals and cultivating crops, they were able to enjoy a warmer climate with a more diverse food supply that helped their civilization survive.
The document summarizes the Stone Age periods in India, including the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic eras. It notes that the earliest humans in India date back around 1.38 million years ago based on archaeological sites. During the Paleolithic period, humans began using stone tools. The Mesolithic period saw the development of microlithic tools. Finally, the Neolithic period marked the beginning of settled agricultural societies in India around 6,000 BCE, with early villages forming and domestication of crops and animals.
The document summarizes human evolution and life during the Paleolithic Age (Old Stone Age) from around 2.5 million years ago to 10,000 BCE. It describes the major hominin species including Australopithecus, Homo erectus, Neanderthals, and Homo sapiens sapiens. Paleolithic humans lived nomadic lifestyles in small bands, hunting and gathering for food. They used simple stone tools and harnessed fire. Later species such as Cro-Magnons produced cave paintings and sculptures, indicating religious and cultural developments.

The document outlines the timeline of world history from prehistory to modern times. It divides world history into two periods: prehistory, before writing was invented; and history, after writing allowed events to be recorded. Prehistory is further divided into the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age. The Stone Age includes the Paleolithic Age (Old Stone Age), Mesolithic Age, and Neolithic Age (New Stone Age). The Paleolithic Age saw early humans' absolute dependence on nature and use of stone tools. Agriculture and animal domestication began in the Neolithic Age.
The document summarizes the Stone Age periods in human prehistory. It describes the Palaeolithic Age as the earliest and longest period, characterized by hunting and gathering with crude stone tools. Cave paintings provide information on early human life. The Mesolithic Age followed, where smaller stone tools were used and hunting became more prevalent. In the Neolithic Age, humans began cultivating crops and domesticating animals, settling into agricultural villages in river valleys, marking a shift to food production. The Chalcolithic Age was a transitional period where both stone and early copper tools were utilized. Archaeological sites provide evidence of life and technological changes during the Stone Age periods.
The Mesolithic Age occurred between 10,000-8,000 BCE. During this time, humans moved out of caves and began building huts. They invented new stone tools like bows and arrows for hunting and boats for fishing. Humans also began domesticating wolves, which eventually became dogs. Societies grew larger and people started making pottery and jewelry. However, humans still maintained a nomadic lifestyle, hunting and gathering food and then migrating to new areas once resources were depleted.
The Paleolithic Age spans from around 2.5 million years ago to around 12,000 years ago. During this time, humans evolved from early hominids like Homo habilis into modern humans. Paleolithic humans lived in small nomadic bands and subsisted by gathering plants and hunting or scavenging wild animals. Tools were made of stone, wood, and bone. By the end of the Paleolithic, humans were producing art and engaging in religious practices. The climate fluctuated between warm and cool periods.
Four important pre-historic ages in India are discussed:
1. Paleolithic Age (Old Stone Age) where man used basic stone tools for hunting and tasks.
2. Mesolithic Age (Intermediate Stone Age) where man began to develop new skills.
3. Neolithic Age (New Stone Age) where man developed improved stone tools and new civilizations.
4. The Age of Metals where gold, then copper, and later bronze and iron were discovered and used, marking further advances in civilization.
Though knowledge of prehistoric India is limited, these ages were important in developing early human skills, inventions, and civilizations.
The document discusses cave paintings and tools from the Paleolithic period. It notes that cave paintings used various colors made from plant extracts and limestone powder. The paintings depicted animals like horses, deer, and lions. Animal fat provided lighting in caves before sunlight. Hunting scenes provided evidence of early human planning and dexterity. Paleolithic humans made stone tools and used bones, wood, and animal skins as weapons and clothing. Several important Paleolithic sites in India are mentioned.
The document summarizes key developments from the Paleolithic period including the emergence of stone tool technology, the movement of humans from caves to villages, and early forms of shelter, art, and symbolic communication. Stone tools allowed humans to cut, shape, and work wood, enabling the creation of projectile weapons, shelters, and other technologies. Cave paintings provided early expressions of beliefs and perspectives on life. Archaeological artifacts and remains like the Skara Brae houses in Orkney, Scotland provide clues about Paleolithic life and how societies were organized.
This document discusses the difference between prehistory and history, noting that prehistory refers to the time before writing was invented around 3500 BC, while history describes the period after writing began. It explains that without written records, archaeologists can only make educated guesses about prehistoric times by studying fossils and artifacts from that era. The summary provides context about how archaeologists investigate past human life and culture.
This document provides an overview of geography, history, and the development of early civilizations. It summarizes that [1] geography studies how people interact with their environments, while history uses written evidence to understand the past. [2] The Stone Age occurred before writing and is divided into the Old Stone Age and New Stone Age. [3] During the Old Stone Age, early humans lived nomadic lifestyles as hunter-gatherers and left religious artifacts suggesting spiritual beliefs. The Neolithic Agricultural Revolution led to permanent settlements and domestication of plants and animals. Early civilizations exhibited complex social structures including cities, governments, religions, social classes, and writing systems.
During the Paleolithic Age (Old Stone Age), early humans lived nomadic lifestyles, hunting and gathering food and dwelling in temporary shelters such as caves. In contrast, during the Neolithic Age (New Stone Age), humans began farming, domesticating animals, and living in permanent settlements, growing their own food and building shelters from wood or mud bricks. This transition marked a shift from nomadic to settled lifestyles as humans progressed technologically.
The document summarizes the Stone Age period of human history. It was called the Stone Age because it was the period when early humans first started using stone tools, which helped them hunt and build shelter. Archaeologists divide the Stone Age into three periods based on tool sophistication: the Paleolithic Age (Old Stone Age), Mesolithic Age (Middle Stone Age), and Neolithic Age (New Stone Age). During the Neolithic Age, humans transitioned to farming and domesticated animals like cows and sheep.

From roughly 10,000 years ago, humans transitioned from hunting and gathering to food production. Early humans used simple stone tools for tasks like catching insects and other small animals. Around 10,000 years ago, some groups began cultivating plants and domesticating animals, marking the beginning of agriculture and the Neolithic period. Key developments included the domestication of crops and animals in places like the Middle East, and innovations like grinding stones and the wheel, which revolutionized tasks like pottery making.
The document summarizes the three main stages of the primitive era: Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic.
1) The Paleolithic age from 2.6 million to 10,000 years ago was characterized by early humans living as hunter-gatherers using basic stone tools. Cave paintings indicated a developing religious practice.
2) During the Mesolithic from 10,000 to 6,000 years ago, humans adapted to environmental changes by developing fishing, domesticating animals, and living in settlements.
3) The Neolithic revolution began around 9500 BC with the adoption of agriculture, development of pottery, and construction of permanent mud brick houses, marking a shift to settled life.
This document summarizes human prehistory from the Paleolithic era to the Metal Ages. It describes how early humans lived as nomadic hunter-gatherers during the Paleolithic era, making tools from stone, bone, and wood. During the Neolithic era, humans transitioned to a more sedentary agricultural lifestyle, domesticating plants and animals and developing pottery and weaving. Finally, the Metal Ages saw the discovery and increasing use of metals like copper, bronze and iron for tools and weapons, as well as the emergence of specialized jobs like metalworkers and traders.
The document provides information about early human settlements and technology during the Stone Age period. It discusses the major periods of the Stone Age - Early Stone Age, Middle Stone Age, and Later Stone Age. During these periods, humans used stone tools for tasks like hunting and butchering animals. They lived in temporary shelters and caves, and created cave paintings. By the Neolithic period, humans began farming and domesticating animals. The Stone Age marked major developments in human technology and settlement patterns over millions of years.
The document summarizes key aspects of the Stone Age, including its duration from around 3.4 million years ago to between 6000 BCE and 2000 BCE. It describes stone tools used during this period, as well as bone tools. The Stone Age saw the evolution of the genus Homo. The earliest evidence of stone tool use was found in Ethiopia, dating to 3.4 million years ago. The transition out of the Stone Age between 6000 and 2500 BCE coincided with the development of smelting and early metal tools. Rock paintings and petroglyphs from the Paleolithic period provide some of the earliest examples of prehistoric art.
The Indus Valley Civilization was an ancient civilization that flourished along the Indus River and Ghaggar-Hakra River in what is now Pakistan and northwest India from 3300 BC to 1700 BC. Major cities of the civilization included Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, which had advanced sewage and drainage systems. The civilization engaged in extensive trade with Mesopotamia and other regions. While much remains unknown about the civilization, archaeologists have uncovered evidence of their advanced urban planning, systems of weights and measures, arts and crafts, and religious symbols.
Distribution of upper paleolithic cultures.pptxMonika Kargeti
The Upper Paleolithic period in india, which lasted from around 40,000 to 10,000 yrs ago , characterised by significant advancements in human culture and technology. This era saw the emergence of modern human behaviour , including the development of sophisticated tools, art, and symbolic expression. The Upper Paleolithic culture in india was marked by the presence of various archaeological sites that provide valuable insights into the lives of early humans during this period.
The document summarizes the Stone Age, beginning with the Paleolithic Era from 2.6 million to around 12,000 years ago. During this time, hominins lived in small nomadic bands and subsisted through hunting and gathering, using basic stone and bone tools. Artistic expression first emerged in the Paleolithic as well. Toolmaking became more advanced over time, with Oldowan tools giving way to more sophisticated Acheulean hand axes and prepared core techniques in the Middle Paleolithic. The Upper Paleolithic saw modern humans innovating with blade tools, cave art, and the domestication of dogs. Language, art, tools, fire, and other technological and cultural developments helped Paleolithic people
This document provides an overview of human evolution and prehistoric periods from early hominids to ancient civilizations. It describes key early humans like Lucy, Homo erectus, and Neanderthals. It outlines the Paleolithic, Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods defined by tool materials (stone, polished stone, copper/bronze). It details the Indus Valley Civilization as an example of the Chalcolithic period, describing its large cities of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. Finally, it characterizes the Ancient, Medieval and Modern periods of civilization in terms of political structures, religions, arts, sciences and technologies.
Trade and artistry have been important parts of human societies since prehistoric times. Early humans created cave paintings, sculptures, and pottery to express themselves. Later, the Sumerians traded goods and developed writing to record their commerce. The Jomon people of ancient Japan invented pottery, developed specialized settlements, and established long-distance trading networks to share resources without overusing any local area. Artisans in ancient Egypt specialized in crafts like sculpture, painting, and metalworking to supply the needs of temples and palaces.

Man first appeared on Earth around 70 million years ago as apes that lived on trees. Over time, they were able to stand and walk upright, using their forelimbs as hands. The Old Stone Age began around 2.6 million years ago, when early humans used stone tools for survival and protection. During the New Stone Age, from around 6000 to 1000 BC, humans developed more advanced tools and started keeping domesticated animals. Metals like copper, tin, zinc and iron were discovered and used to create stronger alloys like bronze, advancing civilization during the Metal Age.
The document summarizes key aspects of the Stone Age, including the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic periods. It describes tools and weapons used in the Stone Age such as clubs, spears, stone axes, and bows and arrows. Examples of cave paintings from this era depicting humans and animals are provided from France, Spain, India, and elsewhere.
The Indus Valley Civilization began during the Bronze Age between 2500 BC and 1500 BC in the Indus River valley region spanning modern day Pakistan and northwest India. Two major cities, Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa, had highly developed urban planning with large residential areas, wells, bathrooms, and an effective drainage system. The people practiced burial rituals, usually in a north-south orientation, and buried individuals with jewelry. The civilization declined around 1800 BCE for reasons that are still unclear but may have included flooding of the Saraswati River or other catastrophic events disrupting the agricultural economy and civic order.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

How to Setup Warehouse & Location in Odoo 17 InventoryCeline George
In this slide, we'll explore how to set up warehouses and locations in Odoo 17 Inventory. This will help us manage our stock effectively, track inventory levels, and streamline warehouse operations.
2. Earth is very old and so is the antiquity of
man. The earliest human fossils have
been found in Africa dating about 4.2
million years. The primitive man was
shorter in height and had a smaller brain.
Homo sapiens evolved over a period of
these years about 50,000 years ago.
Humans have been using stone tools
and their life story is, therefore, divided
into Paleolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic
age.
3. First Fossile -- Male -Ramapithecus
Female -Shivapithecus
(10-14 million years ago)
These fossils were found in Shivalik and
Salt range
Homoerectus: Found in Hathnora (Lower
Palaeolithic) 10 lakh B.C.
Homo sapiens : Found in Upper
Palaeolithic Regions
4. It was basically a hunting and food gathering culture
'Palaeo' means 'old' and 'lithic' means 'stone'. Palaeolithic
age in India is divided into three phases:
Early or Lower Palaeothic (50,000 - 100,000 BC) : It covers
the greater part of the Ice Age and its characteristic
feature is the use of hand-axe, cleaners and choppen
Middle Palaeothic (100,000 - 40,000 BC): The Middle
Palaeothic culture is characterised by flakes. The principal
tools are variety of blades, points and scrappers made of
flakes.
Upper Palaeolithic (40,000 - 10,000 BC) : It marks the
appearance of Homo Sapiens and new flint industries;
widespread appearance of a figurines and other artifacts
reflecting art and rituals; the appearance of wide range
of bone tools, including needles, fishing tools, harpoons,
blades and burin tools.
5. Earliest Palaeolithic man lived on hunting and food
gathering. The hunting and gathering pattern was
dependent upon the season. The nature of stone
tools also varied according to the climate. Not
knowing how to grow his food, he ate fruits, birds, raw
animal flesh etc. The people were wanderers and
moved from places to place. They took refuge under
the rocks in caves and hollow tree trunks.
Rock paintings and carvings have been numerously
founded in Bhimbetka from different periods. The
animals depicted in these paintings were mostly
bisons, elephants, tigers, rhinocerous, boars etc. and
were based on their hunting lives. The upper
Palaeolithic art is characterised by red and green
colours.
6. Facts to Remember
The Palaeolithic culture of India developed
in Pleistocene period.
Robert Bruce Foot was the first to discover a
Palaeolithic stone in India in 1863.
The Palaeolithic research in India got a
boost only with the coming of Yale
Cambridge Expedition in 1935 led by
Deterra and Patterson.
The tools were usually made of hard rock
'quartzite' and therefore Palaeolithic man in
India is also called "Quartzite Man"
7. It was the transitional between Palaeolithic and Neolithic
ages. Its characcteristic tools are microliths all made of stone.
The microliths were first discovered by Carlyle in 1867 from
Vindhyan Rock Shelters. This age is also known by various
names like Late Stone Age or Microlithic Age. The
Mesolithic people lived on hunting, fishing and food-
gathering. Earliest domestication of animals has alo been
witnessed from Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan.
Mesolithic Tools : Tools are characterised by parallel-sided
blades taken out from prepared cores of fine-materials as
chert, crystal, chalcedony, jasper, carnelian, agate etc. and
were generally one to five centimeters long.
8. Paintings : At various sites in Bhimbetka, Adamgarh, etc.
rock and cave paintings have been discovered. In these
paintings, various subjects including animals and human
scenes have been found. Animals are the most frequently
depicted subjects either alone or in large and small groups
and shown in various poses.
Depiction of human figures in rock paintings is quite
common. Dancing, running, hunting, playing games and
quarrelling were commonly depicted scenes. Colours like
deep red, gree, white and yellow were used in making these
paintings.
9.
10. The word 'neolithic' was first coined by Sir John
Lubbock in 1865. Miles Burkit enumerated four
characteristics of neolithic culture
Animal domestication
Agricultural practice
Grined and Polished stone tools and
Pottery manufacture
The discovery of the tools and implements of the
neolithic age was made by Le Mesurier in Uttar
Pradesh in 1860. Later on, Frasher discovered such
objects in Bellary in South India. The people of this
age used tools and implements of polished stone.
11. Neolithic People : The civilisation and culture of the Neolithic
age shows distinct traces of progress. The Neolithic men had a
settled life. They practised agriculture and grew fruits and corn.
Animals, such as the cow, dog, ox, goat etc. were domesticated.
The art of producing fire by the friction of bamboos or pieces of
stones was known to them. Instead of eating the uncooked flesh of
various animals, they now started roasting it. Besides this, bows
and arrows were invented and were used for the purpose of
hunting. They also learnt pottery, at first by hand and then with the
potter's wheel. They painted and decorated their pots. They lived in
caves, the walls of which were polished and painted with the
scenes of hunting and dancing. The also learnt the art of spinning
and weaving clothes. They used to bury their dead and construct
tombs over them which were known as Dolmens, Menhirs etc.s
12. Neolithic Tools : The stone tools of the Neolithic age bear unmistakeable
signs of polish either all over the tools or at the buttend and working-end, or
only at the working end. They fashioned their tools out of fine-grained dark-
green trap, though there are examples of the use of diorite, basalt, slate,
chlorite, schist, indurated shale, gneiss, sand stone and quartzite.
Occupation : Neolithic settlers were cattle-herders and agriculturists. They
produced ragi, wheat, barley, rice, masoor, moong, kulthi etc. Hand-made
pottery is also found in the early stage. Elephant, rhino, buffalo, ox, stag
remains are also found in plenty. But there is no specification of these
domesticated. The pottery were well made but were coarse in nature, not that
much polished.
Red, Grey, Black and Red Ware, Black Burnished Ware and Mat-impressed
Wars are associated with this culture.
Tools making was another important occupation which included a variety of
picks, scrapers, eyed needles, bodkins and pierced batons.
13.
14. Towards the end of the Neolithic period began the use of metals. Firt
metal to be used was copper and the culture of that time is called
Chalcolithic cultre. The earliest settlements belonging to this phase are
extended from the Chhotanagpur plateau to the copper Gangetic
basin. Some sites are found at Brahmagiri near Mysore and Navada Toli
on the Narmada.
The transition from use of stone to the use of metals is slow and long
drawn. There is no doubt that there was an overlapping period when
both stone and metals were used. This is proved by the close
resemblance of metallic tools and implements with those made of
stone. The Chalcolithic i.e. copper bronze age or stone-copper age of
India produced a splendid civilisation in the Indus Valley which spread in
the neighbouring regions.
Occupation: Their economy was based on subsistence agricultre, stock-
raising, hunting and fishing. Their tools consisted of a specialised blade
and flake of silicious material like chalcedony and chert. Copper and
bronze tools were present in a limited number. The culture shares the
common characteristic of painted pottery.
Burial Practices: Another striking feature was the burial practice of the
dead. The dead were buried in north-south position in Maharashtra but
in east-west position in south India. In eastern India, only a fraction of
population buried their dead.

16. More than forty hoards consisting of rings, celts,
hatches, swords, harpoons, spearheads and human-
like figures have been found in a wide area ranging
from West Bengal and Orrisa in the East to Gujrat and
Haryana in the West, and from Andhra Pradesh in the
south to Uttar Pradesh in North. The largest hoard
comes from Gungeria in Madhya Pradesh; it contains
424 copper tools and weapons and 102 thin sheets of
silver objects. But nearly half of the copper hoards
are concentrated in the Ganga-Yamuna doab.
All the implements of the copper hoards
supplemented by stone tools led a settled life, and
were one of the earliest Chalcolithic agriculturists
and artisans to settle in a good portion of the doab.
17.
18. In Southern India, use of iron came after the use of stone. In any case,
there were periods of overlappongs in the use of stone, copper, bronze
and iron. Our only evidence of the transition from copper-bronze age to
the iron age is the monuments like dolmens, cairns, cremolechs. These
have been found in wide areas all over India such as Assam, Bihar,
Orrisa, Central India, Gujrat and Kashmir. But by far the largest number
has been found in south India, in Karnataka and the Decan. These iron
monuments appear to have belonged to both pre-historic and historic
periods.
Monuments discovered in Hyderabad, Mysore, Tinnevelly district,
Coimbatore, Malaba, Penumbur etc. also show varied stages of
development. Neolithic, Microlithic tools along with copper, bronze and
iron implements have been discovered, making it difficult to identify the
actual period of transition from copper-bronze age to iron age. At this
stage of our limited knowledge, no definite conclusion in this regard can
be arrived at. Iron age is usually associated with the Painted Grey Ware.
Painted Grey Ware (PGW) :It referes to the ceramics which have been
fired grey and then painted with black designs. The name chosen is
highly misleading and can lead many beginners to think this, as a type,
which is painted with grey colour. The grey colour, it is believed, is
obtained by firing thin clay pots to as high as at temperature as 800
degree celcius.
