Ancient history

Did the paleolithic age come before neolithic age?

Yes, the Paleolithic Age came before the Neolithic Age. The Paleolithic Age is the longest period in human history, lasting from about 2.6 million years ago to about 10,000 years ago. During the Paleolithic Age, humans were hunter-gatherers and lived in small, nomadic bands. They used stone tools and weapons to hunt animals and gather plants for food.

The Neolithic Age began about 10,000 years ago when humans began to settle down in permanent villages and practice agriculture. They domesticated plants and animals, and began to use pottery and other tools made from clay. The Neolithic Age saw the development of complex societies and the rise of civilization.
