Explanation:

The old stone age was a period through which people received food by fishing and grouping only, not by agriculture or animal husbandry. Metal was not used, the only stone was prepared for tools (arrowheads and hand axes). It was a very primordial time. The Stone Age was a time thousands of years ago when humans lived in caves and jungles. Life was simple, and there were only two main things to do – to protect themselves from the wild animals and to collect food.
