Early sedentary society
Early sedentary societies are groups of people who settled in one place rather than constantly moving. They developed around permanent homes, often near reliable food sources like rivers or fertile land. This shift allowed them to grow crops, domesticate animals, and build stable communities. Sedentary life led to increased population density, social organization, and the emergence of specialized roles like craft workers and leaders. This transition from nomadic to settled life was a key step in human development, laying the foundation for more complex societies, technological advances, and the development of culture and governance.
