Early Humans and the Stone Age

Early humans, known as Homo sapiens, emerged around 200,000 years ago during the Paleolithic Era, commonly referred to as the Stone Age. They were primarily hunter-gatherers, relying on the natural environment for food, clothing, and shelter. The Stone Age is defined by the use of stone tools, which were crucial for survival. Over time, these early humans developed social structures, art, and language, laying the foundations for future civilizations.
