Are you kidding me!! It was the start of civilization! People started getting smart and domesticated plants and animals( farming).

When was the beginning of agriculture?

The Neolithic Revolution was the most significant event in the history of mankind. The Neolithic Revolution is the transformation of societies from being hunter-gatherer based to agriculture based. This period, 10,000 years ago, brought many changes to human society and culture.As populations rose, hunters felt pressure to find new food sources. Unlike hunting, farming provided a steady food source. Some groups practiced slash- and - burn farming. They would cut down trees and grasses and burn them to clear a field. The remaining ashes fertilized the soil. They would farm on that land for a year or two, move on to another area of land, and repeat the process.Also, during this revolution, animals were domesticated, or tamed. Thanks to hunter's expert knowledge of wild animals, animals could be trapped in human made enclosures. From there, the animals could be kept as a constant food source. Horses, dogs, goats and pigs were all tamed during the Neolithic Revolution.Because of this agricultural revolution, people could now farm instead of hunting and gathering. The Neolithic Revolution allowed people to settle down and live in one place. This led to permanent settlements and the development of group living. The Neolithic Revolution also led to the development of governments. People lived in settlements and they started dividing the work. They needed people to hunt, farm, cook, or do other jobs. Since everyone could not do the same thing, they needed organization. Also, with the discovery of agriculture people began to have food surpluses. This led to population growth and allowed people to trade or sell the extra food that they grew. This is why I think the Neolithic Revolution is the most significant event in the history of mankind.About 10,000 years ago, perhaps slightly earlier.
