Summary/Abstract: It is about a period in which, practically, once the evolution of the world ended and the climate became stable, the development of the human being ended as well, neither the physical nor the mental ability of the human being changed fundamentally. The new phase of civilization of the human kind, the Neolithic one, though it is much shorter than the Paleolithic (but also clearly longer than the rest of the future historical periods), came with changes regarding all fields: religion, economy, society, art. All these transformations, named by specialists “the Neolithic revolution” were not installed all of a sudden in the whole world, but the phenomenon of the appearance of the Neolithic happened in different points on this planet, and also the one of ending it, this phenomenon happened in different periods and differently in the world.
