TAILIEUCHUNG - Lecture Glencoe world history - Chapter 1: The first humans (Prehistory-3500 B.C.)

The first humanlike creatures appeared in Africa four million years ago. Early humans left no written records. Without such records, archaeologists and anthropologists have had to rely on fossils, artifacts, and skeletal remains to develop theories about their lives. Researchers have concluded that the earliest humans lived as hunters and gatherers and focused on basic needs. Only millions of years later did they develop the skills and tools necessary to engage in agriculture and to build the first civilizations. The topics discussed in this chapter are early humans and the neolithic revolution. | Splash Screen Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Section 1: Early Humans Section 2: The Neolithic Revolution Visual Summary Chapter Intro What is civilization?
