Paleolithic culture

Paleolithic culture refers to the lifestyle and achievements of early humans during the Paleolithic era, which lasted from about 2.5 million years ago to around 10,000 BCE. This period is marked by the development of stone tools and the use of fire, as well as hunter-gatherer societies. People lived in small groups, relying on hunting animals and gathering wild plants for food. Artifacts like cave paintings and carved figurines reflect their creative and spiritual lives. The Paleolithic era represents a foundational stage of human development and adaptation to diverse environments before the advent of agriculture.
