I was able to learn much quickly in my research of ancient peoples with this clear breakdown of the climates and geographic influences that transformed nomadic hunter gatherers into specialized farmers. The resulting social implications of animal husbandry, specialized jobs and products, trade, and city centers with spiritual leaders were also documented clearly with artifacts.
