The final division of the Stone Age, that lasted from 12,000 to 6,500 years ago

Real World Example

The Neolithic Era was a time when humans transitioned from being nomadic hunter-gatherers to settling down and starting agriculture. This shift allowed people to grow their own food, leading to the establishment of permanent communities and the beginnings of civilization. It addressed the problem of food scarcity and enabled the development of larger populations. Today, this era still matters because it laid the foundation for modern society's agriculture and community living. For example, the agriculture techniques developed during the Neolithic Era influence how we produce food today, allowing us to have grocery stores full of diverse foods.
