The Neolithic Revolution, also known as the "Stone Age 2.0," began around 10,000 years ago. It started with the introduction of farming, which allowed for a more reliable food source, and thus, more leisure time for our ancient ancestors to pursue... well, let's be real, they mostly just worked more hours for less.
Here's a brief timeline of key events:
- 10,000 years ago: The Great Farming Initiative - The invention of agriculture, because who needs a social life, anyway?
- 5,000 years ago: The Rise of Sedentary Societies - Because being stationary is so much harder than being on-the-move.
- 3,000 years ago: The First Cities - Because nothing says "progress" like living on top of each other.
- 1,000 years ago: The Feudal Era - Where family drama and land disputes became the new sports.
