  8. 1. How was the Neolithic Revolution a turning point or hallmark event in human history? Sedentary Lifestyle Promoted private ownership Allowed for surpluses Changed gender roles Allowed for specialization of labor Created a need for more advanced institutions of control (governments, religions, social structures, etc.) Humans took control of their environment instead of responding to it

  9. 2. Why did some peoples choose to remain pastoralists/foragers even after the Neolithic Revolution? • Geographic limitations • Poor climate for agriculture • Inadequate irrigation • Lack of staple crops / Drought • Cultural connections to previous lifestyle • Competition for resources

  10. 3. Where did the earliest civilizations form and why? • River Valleys • Nile • Tigris / Euphrates • Indus • Huang He / Yangtze • Rivers provided irrigation, drinking water, and transportation • Why not other rivers?

  11. 4. What different forms of rule did the earliest civilizations use to keep order? Egypt  Divine rule; pharaoh = god; bureaucracy Mesopotamia  Lugals = “Big Men;” strong armies (Assyrians); use of priests India  Samsara and caste system (social institutions) China  Mandate of Heaven (Divine Right); Confucian beliefs (Social Roles)

  12. 5. What factors helped determine the social structures of various early civilizations? • Free vs. Slave (Mesopotamia especially) • Land ownership (China) • Occupation • India • Mesopotamia • Egypt • Gender

  13. 6. Explain the interconnection between geography and religion in two early civilizations. Egypt  Gods controlled environment beneficial flooding = nice gods; unified religion due to geographic isolation Mesopotamia  Violent floods = Angry, vengeful gods; introduction of new religions (Judaism, Zoroastrianism, etc.) due to geographic “openness” China  Mandate of Heaven illustrated by natural disasters

  14. 7. Was there gender equality in early societies? If not, what prevented it? All Neolithic societies  women no longer play as much of a role in food acquisition China  Confucianism held women in lower status than any male; men must “protect” women India  Aryan beliefs made women the equivalent to lowest caste; sati Egypt  Limited protections and rights for women, but not equivalent of men (few female leaders) Mesopotamia  No female “Lugals” = no legal equality for women
