  2. Agricultural Age: 8000BC-1750 • The significance of this age was the transfer of nomadic wandering all around - to grouping into villages, thus the creation of culture. Toffler (Toffler, 1990 p 22) stated that “despite patches of primitivism and hints of the industrial future, agricultural civilization dominated the planet and seemed destined to do so forever.” • Toffler, A. (1980). The Third Wave. New York: Bantam Books.

  3. Industrial Age 1750-1950 • The Industrial Revolution that began in the eighteenth century. This is when people began leaving the farming traditions and began working in factories.
