    1)Paleolithic: Developed a language & First to live in clans.

    2) Developing a language definetly helped, I can imagine, the communication between homo sapiens at that time; Compared to just being on their own and believing what they want, being in a clan is real different. People born into the 'clans' probably were forced to do & believe in things they may not have wanted to.

  2. 1.)paleolithic- weapons && fire

    2.)developing weapons are important and very useful for protection and to help hunters kill their food/animals. fire is also important because its very useful in different situations as for an example: (light, hot food, and heat when weather is cold)

    1) During the neolithic time period they developed agriculture and used advaced tools like spears.

    2) They developed agriculture so they could eat things such as corn and tomatos. If they would have just ate animals than there soon not be any left to eat and they would die. They updated their tools for protection and hunting.

  4. 1) During the Paleolithic time period they developed cave art,and a spoken language.

    2) They developed a spoken language so that it would be easier for them to communicate. Also so other clans couldn't understand them.
