Agricultural revolution
The moment when people switched from hunting and gathering to agriculture
This was a big change in society
(Society of hunters and gatherers --> agricultural society)
A revoltuion means: a big change in society.
Life changed completely!!!
Slide 19 - Diapositive
What is?
change and continuity (in history lessons)?
Change: this means that something ends and is replaced by something different.
For example: When the Roman monarchy ended and Rome became a Republic.
A system of government was replaced by a very different system. So this is "change".
Continuity: this means that somethings continues, or "keeps going on" .
For example: After the fall of the western Roman empire Christianity continued as an important religion.
In other words: If Christianity had ended with the Roman empire we would speak of "change", but in this case we speak of "continuity".
Slide 20 - Diapositive
Hunters & Farmers
A hunter has not much possessions
A farmer has much possessions
Slide 21 - Diapositive
The nature rules
Hunters learn to sow and harvest. In this way they gain control over nature. They don't have to look for everything anymore, but decide for themselves where it grows! That is more convenient! Hunters gradually become farmers.
Stay in one place
They sometimes say, from horn to her. Then you go everywhere, in all directions. The invention of agriculture meant that hunters no longer had to pull. They therefore made better huts. From clay or loam instead of animal skins.
