| Publisher Description: The Stone Age was a long period that we just started to undress... now we know that we were wrong about that remote past.Man, by nature, is sedentary. A deep primitive instinct leads us to consider as property the territory that feeds us and gives us shelter. Archaeology has revealed that long before the dynastic history of the Pharaohs began; primitive tribes lived along the Nile River, settled in sedentary villages, millennia before agriculture and the domestication of animals. These tribes were hunter-gatherer clans, nomads only when climatic changes forced them to leave; they organized complex societies that maintained an intense trade in the middle of the Stone Age, exchanging the most diverse products, sometimes transported more than two thousand kilometers from their place of origin.Before ceramics, before the diffusion of the use of copper, before the domestication of the horse, before the plow... complex societies of hunters evolved, collected wild cereals to make wheat and barley flour, drank beer, consumed breads... and built sanctuaries and temples, which only now archaeology is unraveling.It was a time when only one animal had been domesticated: the dog. |
