Storing grain allowed hunter-gatherer societies to have a more reliable food source during times of scarcity, reducing the risk of starvation. It also enabled communities to settle in one place for longer periods, leading to the development of more complex social structures and specialized roles within the society.
In early societies, barter systems were common where goods and services were exchanged directly without a standardized currency. As societies evolved, commodities like grain, shells, and precious metals such as silver and gold were used as forms of money for trade.
A quern stone is a simple hand mill used for grinding grain into flour during the Neolithic period. It consists of two stones - a stationary lower stone and a movable upper stone that are rubbed together to grind the grain. Quern stones were an important tool for early farming societies to process food.
The Oasis Theory suggests that agriculture developed in areas where water and fertile land were scarce, leading early humans to cultivate plants near oases. The Social Complexity Theory argues that agriculture arose as a means to support growing populations and complex societies, as it allowed for a more reliable and efficient food supply. The Climate Change Theory suggests that shifts in climate and environmental conditions forced hunter-gatherer societies to settle in one place and adopt farming practices to ensure food security.

Some researchers believe that grain was indeed stored in the pyramids, specifically in the pyramid complex at Giza. However, this theory is debated among historians and archaeologists, with others suggesting the pyramids were used for the burial of pharaohs. More research is needed to draw a definitive conclusion.

I think so many societies depend on grain because grain was scarce
A grain elevator is a tall building equipped with machinery for loading cleaning mixing and storing grains. It scoops up the grain from the ground level and carries it up to a higher level for storage.
storing grains in a proper storage place under appropriate moisture and temperature to prevent it from the attack of insects and to preserve it for later use is called storage of grain.
a place for storing grain could be in a granary but I am not sure so if it could be a granary.
