A Settled Life
Dr. Senta German
when people think of the Neolithic era, they often think of Stonchenge, the iconic
mage of this early era. Dating to approximately 3000 B.C.E. and set on Salisbury
Ham in England, it is a structure larger and more complex than anything built before
It in Europe. Stonehenge is an example of the cultural advances brought about by
the Neolithic revolution-the most important development in human history. The
way we live today, settled in homes, close to other people in towns and cities,
protected by laws, eating food grown on farms, and with leisure time to learn, explore
and invent is all a result of the Neolithic revolution, which occurred approximately
11,500-5,000 years ago. The revolution which led to our way of life was the
development of the technology needed to plant and harvest crops and to domesticate
animals.
Before the Neolithic revolution, it's likely you would have lived with your extended
family as a nomad, never staying anywhere for more than a few months, always living
in temporary shelters, always searching for food and never owning anything you
couldn't easily pack in a pocket or a sack. The change to the Neolithic way of life was
huge and led to many of the pleasures

home)

Neolithic Art. The massive changes in
the way people lived also changed the
types of art they made. Neolithic
sculpture became bigger, in part,
because people didn't have to carry it around anymore; pottery became more
widespread and was used to store food harvested from farms. This is when alcohol
was first produced and when architecture, and its vivid interior and exterior
decoration, first appears. In short, people settle down and begin to live in one place,
year after year.
It seems very unlikely that Stonehenge could have been made by earlier,
Paleolithic, nomads. It would have been a waste to invest so much time and energy
building a monument in a place to which they might never return or might only
return infrequently. After all, the effort to build it was extraordinary. Stonehenge
