Paleolithic refers to the suffix and prefix Paleo(Ancient, Old), and Lithic(Stone). During the paleolithic era no concrete human society existed and all of humanity was nomadic. What characterizes the Paleolithic Age is the emergence of tools and nomadic tendencies among humans, before the Neolithic (Age of Civilzations), but after primitve human emergence after African Migration.
