2. Early farmers domesticated plants and animals. A variety of wheat and barley in the same area indicated that early farmers sowed wild grains. Around 8500 B.C., the skeletal structure of domesticated sheep began changing from that of wild sheep.
3. Neolithic farmers learned to make flour. Querns were found at Neolithic sites, indicating that the farmers learned to grind the wheat into flour.
