Long ago, people lived in small groups and hunted or farmed together. But one day, they started growing more food than they needed, this extra food meant people could live in bigger places and do different jobs like making tools or telling stories. Over time, these big living spaces turned into the first cities.
Examples
- Imagine you have extra bread from your harvest, now you can trade it with someone else who has tools.
- A group of people living near a river starts building homes next to each other, forming a big village.
- Your neighbor no longer hunts, he makes pottery instead.
