hello friends welcome to new happy learning video today we're going to 00:00:00
learn about our prehistory the first thing we need to know is that our 00:00:12
prehistory is divided into three different periods Paleolithic Neolithic 00:00:19
and the metal ages the Paleolithic begins with the appearance of the first 00:00:27
human beings and ends 8,000 years before Christ. 00:00:37
During the Paleolithic period, people were nomads, meaning that they didn't live in 00:00:43
one place, no, they were constantly on the move in search of animals to hunt. 00:00:48
As they were hunters and gatherers, they needed to follow the animals in order to capture 00:00:55
them and at the same time they collected wild fruits they found on their way they lived in 00:01:00
tribes in small groups formed by families and they found refuge in caves where they would paint on 00:01:10
the wall these paintings were done with a mixture of charcoal earth animal fat and water look here 00:01:17
Here are a few examples. 00:01:26
The truth is, it's absolutely fascinating to think that these first paintings, these 00:01:28
first artistic representations were drawn thousands of years ago, don't you think? 00:01:33
Both Paleolithic men and women wore animal skins which they had hunted previously. 00:01:42
And they used tools such as an axe and spears made out of stones, wood and bones which they 00:01:49
themselves carved. 00:01:55
With the passing of time, or rather centuries, these first human beings became more and more 00:02:01
intelligent and they began to domesticate animals such as dogs, goats, sheep and pigs. 00:02:07
They also began to cultivate plants which were then eaten. 00:02:15
With the arrival of agriculture and farming, everything changed. 00:02:21
Man stopped being a nomad and became sedentary and the first villages were made. 00:02:25
This is when the Paleolithic period ends and the Neolithic begins. 00:02:32
The Neolithic started 8 million years before Christ when we discovered agriculture and 00:02:37
farming and it finished 5000 years BC with the beginning of the metal ages. 00:02:42
Men and women in the Neolithic produced food by cultivating the land and domesticating 00:02:49
animals. We can say that they were the first farmers and agriculturalists of our history, 00:02:55
better yet, our prehistory. As they had to look after their crops and animals, they constructed 00:03:02
small villages and began to settle in them permanently, meaning that they transformed 00:03:09
into sedentary, not like the Paleolithic, who were nomads because they were moving constantly. 00:03:14
The first Neolithic settlements were situated in very fertile lands, near rivers so they 00:03:20
could access water easily, needed for their crops as well as allowing their animals to 00:03:28
drink. 00:03:34
You know how important water is in our life! 00:03:35
The first plants that were cultivated were cereals such as wheat or pulses like chickpeas. 00:03:41
But do you know which were the first animals to be domesticated? 00:03:47
Well, it was dogs, sheep, goats and pigs. 00:03:52
During the Neolithic era, many interesting things were invented, such as ceramic and fabric. 00:04:03
But the most important invention was the wheel. 00:04:10
Everything became so easy for men and women in the Neolithic. 00:04:15
especially when they started using metals this is the point where the neolithic ended and a new era 00:04:20
in prehistory commenced the metal ages which commenced approximately 6 500 years bc and 00:04:27
finished when the first written language was born the first metal which was used was copper 00:04:37
Then bronze, which is a mixture of copper and tin 00:04:45
And finally, iron, which is a much more abundant mineral 00:04:50
And therefore, easier to find in nature 00:04:55
In order to mould these metals, they were melted at extremely high temperatures 00:04:59
And transformed into the desired shape 00:05:05
This is how utensils like tools, weapons and decorations were made 00:05:08
This process is called metallurgy 00:05:13
Through metallurgy, crafts and trade began 00:05:17
The metallurgists were the first specialised craftsmen 00:05:21
as the metallurgy is a very complex and difficult task 00:05:26
which few knew how to do 00:05:30
The rise of Bulgarian production and the appearance of crafts caused 00:05:32
bartering, that is the exchange of products 00:05:39
This is when trade began 00:05:42
Trade, over time, made some villages grow in size, turning into cities 00:05:45
This then created large commercial and cultural exchange between these new cities 00:05:53
And new inventions, such as sailboats and wagons, used to transport goods were made 00:06:02
Trade also changed society by creating social classes 00:06:07
The rich and the poor, the powerful and the slaves. 00:06:13
During the metal ages, people began questioning the mysteries of life as well as death 00:06:20
and the first religious representations arose. 00:06:25
Constructions called megaliths were created with large blocks of stone. 00:06:31
Mega meaning large and liths, stone. 00:06:38
The simplest megalith was the Menir, a large stone reverted vertically into the ground. 00:06:42
Dolmens were also constructed, such as the ones we see in these images. 00:06:49
The metal ages ended with the first written language about 4,000 years ago. 00:06:54
And with this, prehistory comes to an end. 00:07:00
But history commences! 00:07:03
Did you find learning about prehistory interesting? 00:07:06
Paleolithic, Neolithic and the Metal Ages? 00:07:09
We definitely did, because by getting to know our past, 00:07:13
we understand our present and make our future better. 00:07:17
Goodbye, friends. See you next time. 00:07:21
