In this era the people are self reliant and didn't need a big group or someone else to farm for them. Some of the advantages of this is there is no social class, rich or poor, or discrimination against women because there jobs are equal

In Paleolithic times they had to rely on what came to them day by day. With farming, there is a constant supply of food and less people went hungry.

We wouldn't have higher material inventions and we wouldn't even have towns or cities in which we live in. In Paleolithic times, people weren't civilized and they never stopped moving, they never settled down to have time for other things.

There was more job specialization for other things to get done. Not everyone had to focus on food so people could do more things that they enjoyed like art or pottery. Agriculture also helps support everyone including the people who aren't directly involved with food.

Some of these disadvantage are radically changing environment, farming is incredibly hard, and rarely any herding.

They would hunt and pick everything that they could in a given area until there's almost nothing left. Maybe even to appoint where it doesn't gro back. So then they would have to pick up everything and go somewhere else and do the same thing. Also the hunter gatherers did not herd either. Herding is an alternative to both.

It allowed groups of people to settle in one area and truly cultivate and nurture the soil for their crops. The cycles of cultivation and harvesting allowed us to learn the value of self-sufficiency versus reliability.

The crash course video mentioned that hunter gatherers spent a lot less time working for food, which allowed more time for things like art and sex. Also, the Diamond article mentioned certain hunter gatherer tribes spent less than 20 hours a week working for food, which is less than half of what an average worker today spends at work, meaning they would have had even more time for leisure and things they enjoy.]]> 2016-09-01 01:03:36 UTC https://padlet.com/polinmat/bblv4eupptev/wish/120984048 https://padlet.com/polinmat/bblv4eupptev/wish/120993922 Going off what "Dad" first said, about there being a better food supply and less people being hungry. Many hunter-gatherers dealt with starvation and never knew exactly where their food was going to come from. Agriculture works for their own food, while hunter-gatherers were depending on nature to supply for them. They were constantly moving around and trying to find food. As said in the excerpt "Back of History" by William Howells, he states that there are only so many wild animals and fruits they're able to eat because of nature. He also says "nature is in control, not they."]]> 2016-09-01 02:34:08 UTC https://padlet.com/polinmat/bblv4eupptev/wish/120993922 https://padlet.com/polinmat/bblv4eupptev/wish/120999041 Going off of what "dad" said about not everyone having to work in farming, that is very true. People weren't tied down to only having one job, people could spend time just doing art, or just making music, or just storytelling, or even just watching the kids. In the Paleolithic society everyone had the same job which left no room for diversity.]]> 2016-09-01 03:18:33 UTC https://padlet.com/polinmat/bblv4eupptev/wish/120999041
