The Palaeolithic period coincided with the last Ice Age and was characterized by hunter-gatherer communities with little permanent settlement who lived in caves and created isolated finds. These communities developed increasingly complex stone technologies including bows and arrows, bolas, nets and the domestication of dogs. Evidence also exists of Palaeolithic artwork, cave art, religion and ritual. Social organization consisted of small, nomadic and egalitarian bands that were likely similar to some modern hunter-gatherer communities, with a primitive form of communism where resources were shared and skills were similar across members. Ritual and religious practices such as shamanism also appeared to be part of their culture.

Rice is the main crop grown through subsistence farming in India. Rice growing requires a warm, wet climate with heavy rainfall during the monsoon season and temperatures above 24°C year-round. These small, family-run farms have very small field sizes, use little technology, and require significant manual labor. Soil bunds and a nearby water source are also needed to retain water in the flooded rice paddies.
Mount St. Helens is a large volcanic cone that erupted on May 18, 1980, causing massive destruction. The eruption triggered an earthquake that collapsed the north side of the mountain in a massive debris avalanche. This was followed by a pyroclastic flow that flattened vegetation over 600 square kilometers and released over 1.5 million metric tons of sulfur dioxide. Lahars, or volcanic mudflows, formed from the collapse debris and flowed over 27 kilometers, destroying bridges and camps. The eruption killed 57 people and over 7,000 animals and destroyed over 200 homes and damaged highways and railways.
Long barrows were ancient communal tombs built as elongated mounds of earth or chalk covering a wooden or stone chamber. Burials took place over 3-4 generations or a decade. Over 300 have been found concentrated in Wessex and the Cotswolds. They were often built on prominent hills away from settlements and may have served as territorial markers and burial chambers. Initial excavations show long barrows were built resembling Neolithic longhouses, with human remains added to and removed from the structures over centuries as part of ancestral rites and fertility ceremonies.

The timbers are currently held by the archaeologist who discovered Seahenge.
Regional variations in burial practices emerged in Neolithic Britain, with long barrows common in southern England and stone chambers in western Britain. Burial mounds were often located prominently overlooking settlements. Collective burials containing disarticulated remains suggested excarnation. Later, megalithic tombs with stone passages and chambers covered by mounds appeared in Ireland, Wales, Scotland. Beaker burials around 4700 years ago featured crouched inhumations under round barrows. Wealthier Bronze Age burials from around 4200 years ago contained continental-style grave goods indicating a warrior elite.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
