Answer to Question #163700 in History for Feby Abraham

Question

Describe Paleolithic economy and society, especially hunting-and-gathering.

Answer 1

Paleolithic is the stone age period. In this period, humans used tools made from stones. Stone spears and hand axes were some of the tools that humans made and used during this period. Humans in this period were hunters and gatherers. They killed animals and collected plants for consumption. Humans in the paleolithic period were after buffalos, wild goats, and so many other animals. For plants, they gathered wild fruits, vegetables, and nuts. They moved in groups during hunting so that they could collect more food for storage. Collecting more food also prevented them from migrating from one place to another.
