Stone age
The document summarizes differences between the Old Stone Age (Paleolithic Age) and New Stone Age (Neolithic Age). During the Paleolithic Age, people hunted and gathered food, lived nomadically in temporary shelters, and wore clothing made of animal furs. In contrast, the Neolithic Age saw the development of agriculture and domestication of animals, with people settling in permanent homes near crops and herding animals. Clothing incorporated wool from domesticated sheep.
