Prehistory_VS._Civilization

Prehistory VS. Civilization Various differences can be found between the situation of humankind in prehistory and in civilization today. In prehistory, the tools and technology were very limited. This was the period of time in which the wheel and the plow were invented. There was limited access to tools and technology, which affected many areas of life. This time period was socially primitive as well. Men and women were hunter-gatherers, and likely shared relatively equitable roles and levels of responsibility in the household. Women were in charge of gathering food and the technologies with which to store it, and men were responsible for hunting the meat. This was the time when the domestication of some plants and animals occurred, and it was also the birth of farming. Farming was very small scale, and farmlands were common property.
