Answer:
The Neolithic is the period of human history in which agriculture and livestock (cattle) appeared and became widespread, giving rise to agrarian societies. Normally, but not necessarily, it is accompanied by pottery work. In the Neolithic appear the first settlements and sedentary human settlements. The Neolithic period was followed, according to the regions, by the Age of Metals or directly by the Ancient Age, in which arose the writing and civilizations.
The Neolithic revolution occurred independently from at least six regions of the planet, without contact with each other, known as the cradles of civilization: Western Asia, Eastern China, New Guinea, Mesoamerica, Cordillera de los Andes, Eastern North America, and possibly also sub-Saharan Africa and Amazonia.
