The Neolithic Revolution is indeed a revolution for mankind, and it is definitely one of the most, if not the most important one. This revolution changed the lifestyle of the people. Prior to it, the people were nomads, constantly moving from place to place in order to find enough food to survive. With this revolution though, the humans started to have a sedentary lifestyle, thus they were making permanent dwellings and created settlements, later growing in villages and cities. The main reason for this change was that the people started to plant some of the wild crops and learned how to grow them. By doing so, they were able to produce enough and often more than enough food, thus they solved their primary problem. Because they were able to produce food, the people didn't had the need to move around constantly, so they started to settle in. This resulted in having more spare time, and that spare time was used for specialization in other fields and engaging in other activities. This resulted in the beginnings of the sciences, as well as experimenting with creation of new tools from new materials, which significantly improved them over time.
