Summary Introduction
To describe: Some transitions from hunter-gatherer societies to agricultural societies to the industrial revolution and find out whether all these societies have gone through these stages in this order or not.
Concept introduction: Human beings are the first animals to undergo organic evolution, cultural, and social evolution.

Cultural evolution is not obtained through genes but rather by language. Languages are another unique feature of human beings.
