The Paleolithic Era, also known as the Old Stone Age, spans from approximately 2.6 million years ago to around 10,000 BCE. It is divided into three periods: the Lower Paleolithic (2.6 million to 300,000 years ago), characterized by the emergence of early hominins and the use of simple stone tools; the Middle Paleolithic (300,000 to 30,000 years ago), associated with Neanderthals and the development of more sophisticated tools; and the Upper Paleolithic (50,000 to 10,000 BCE), marked by the rise of modern Homo sapiens, artistic expression, and more advanced tool-making techniques. The era ended with the advent of agriculture, leading to the Neolithic Revolution.
