Upper Paleolithic Revolution
The Upper Paleolithic Revolution (around 50,000 years ago) was a significant period when early humans developed advanced tools, art, and cultural practices. During this time, they created specialized stone tools, engaged in complex hunting, and produced the first known examples of art, like cave paintings and carvings. These innovations reflect increased cognitive abilities, social organization, and symbolic thinking. This cultural shift marked a major step in human evolution, leading towards more sophisticated societies and setting the foundation for future technological and cultural developments.
