4. Homework: Hunter-Gatherer Reflection
On page 28 of your ISN, write 2 to 3 sentences for each topic, summarize what you learned about the following:
A) The domestication of plants and animals provided a stable amount of food, which caused a big change in population of a culture. With more amount of food sources, more types or opportunities where offered. The beginning of farming was a big step in our history, today without farming people wouldn’t have the food they have with it.
B) The transition from hunter-gatherer communities to the first civilizations. This transition between the hunter-gatherer stages to the first civilizations marked a big step in our history. This made the early humans worry, so they learned how to farm, so they don’t get left without food. Instead of being nomadic, they observed and settled from their surroundings learning to live in another way and not everyone living the same way.
