Dosya Açıklaması : Today, no one can explain how the first men began to live on earth and how the first groups of men came together or separated from each other. It is possible that in the future scientists, archaeologists and historians will find out the unknown origins of human past and its revolutions throughout history. The only clues, that we have today, are the inheritance of our very early ancestors. Those clues are found more easily when they usually come closer to our time. That is not because they are newer. Today, we can see the wild tribes (of Africa or Australia) that are nomadic and that do not make any change in their environment; in other words, they leave no evidence about their life behind them. However, the prehistoric clues can be found a bit easily, because they came from the eras of sedentary life when people made several tools and buildings. We can still see some of these prehistoric implements and learn the lives of their owners. The eras before those implements were made and the revolutions between these eras can still be discussed today. One of them is the revolution which made a change in the life of early man, The Urban Revolution and its main reasons like the humans natural needs, problems, the growing populations and the revolutions that took place before. First of all, it would be better to define the prehistoric eras in order. In 1965, J. D. Bernal wrote a book about the origins of science and arranged the eras in a chronological order. Old Stone Age (paleothic) is the first age when people were in small groups, hunting and gathering food (8000 BC). Then comes The Stage of Village Agriculture (Neolithic) when a village is a unit of the era and when the first agriculture, weaving, pottery and religion started and improved (8000-5500 BC).The last era we will examine is The Stage of River Culture (Bronze) when cities were founded, metals were treated and the basics of society such as economy, politics, transformation and trade were developed(5500-3000 BC). Bernal has divided primitive life into two parts: The material basis of primitive life (science) and the social basis of primitive life (Bernal, 1965). Another author, V. Gordon Childe, examines the subject in three chapters: Neolithic revolution, Second revolution, Urban revolution ( 1951)...
