sedentary cultures

Sedentary cultures are societies that settle in one place rather than moving frequently. This stability often leads to the development of agriculture, enabling people to grow food and form permanent communities. As a result, these cultures can build complex social structures, create art, and develop technologies. Sedentary life allows for population growth and specialization of labor, as individuals can focus on different skills rather than constantly searching for resources. Examples include ancient civilizations like the Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and the Chinese, who established cities and advanced societies based on agriculture and trade.
