Prehistory
What is “history”? Documentation
Written records Archaeological discovery
Requisite human presence (or “natural” history)

Development of Hominids
Animals adapt themselves to environment Hominids adapt environment to themselves
Use of tools Language Complex cooperative social structures

Later Hominids
Homo Erectus, “upright man” Larger brain capacity (1000 cc), improved tool use,
control of fire Homo Sapiens, “wise man” Homo Sapiens Sapiens, “very
wise man” (most of us) Largest brain, esp. frontal regions most sophisticated tools and social organization Migrations of Homo Erectus and Homo Sapiens

The Natural Environment
By 13,000 BCE Homo sapiens in every inhabitable part of the world
Archaeological finds: Sophisticated tools
Choppers, scrapers, axes, knives, bows, arrows Cave and hutlike dwellings Use of fire, animal skins
Hunted several mammal species to extinction Climactic change may have accelerated process

Paleolithic Era (“Old Stone Age”)
Evidence: Archaeological finds Extrapolation from modern hunter-gatherer societies
Nomadic existence precludes advanced civilization Groups of 30-50 Division of labor along gender lines

Relative Social Equality
Nomadic culture precludes accumulation of land-based wealth More likely determinants of status: age, hunting skill,
fertility, charisma Possible gender equality related to food
production Men: protein from hunting Women: plant gethering

Big Game Hunting
Evidence of intelligent coordination of hunting expeditions Development of weaponry Animal-skin disguises Stampeding tactics
Lighting of fires, etc. to drive game into kill zones
Requires planning, communication

Neolithic Era (“New Stone Age”)
Distinction in tool production Chipped vs. polished
Men: herding animals rather than hunting Women: nurtured vegetation rather than foraging Spread of Agriculture
Slash-and-and burn techniques Exhaustion of soil promotes migration Transport of crops from one region to another
