The neolithic age started due to major changes in agriculture and ways to get food. people started to settle in and create villages and city states. The role of women changed because the people now thought of men being much more powerful and how they have to work hard. The social also changed because now that there was one main settlement tthey needed a leader to lead them. usually these leaders you could say would be much more important than the rest. The economy changed; according to how much you owned would tell how rich you are.

land began to be owned, variety in the food people ate decreased since they would mostly only eat there own crops, disease became more common and more easily spread, social classes developed, and it gave free time to develop other things since not everyone had to work. and birth rates began to rise and infanticide decreased

ever since the Neolithic Revolution, women were treated more and more subordinate to men.

Because of the Neolithic Revolution, the social became well organized with classes, population began to grow, and people became smarter using new technologies. Life became easier, towns appeared with crowded people. Food capacity grew also.

The effect of the Neolithic Revolution was it ensured people of more regular food supply but at the same time decreased the variety. It moved toward an agricultural transition. People began hard physical labor, and also began to permanently settle. There was also the emergence of social classes.

People began to farm and have a language. Before the Neolithic Revolution, people just focus their life to satisfy their basic needs, however later, people's greediness began to show. Also, before people used to hunt and gather and later changed to agricultural society. Population increased, and had an easier communication, but the bad side is that it led to people's selfishness.

The Neolithic Revolution had many effects. Some of these include how it caused the people to settle in the same place rather than moving around so much. This caused poeple to claim land as their own and newcomers became invaders. This lead to conflict between the people and social classes immerged. Also there was a boom in population. The Neolithic Revolution is kind of how everything started from civilizations imergin to specialization in labor all the way to what we have become today.
