2. Gardening

Gardening is the cultivation of plants on a small scale, it has been practiced for thousands of years. Cereals and grains were probably grown here in gardens when only wheat and grains were domesticated. Gardening led to a more settled way of life and it also showed how advanced the neolithic people were in this time period. The discovery of gardening really advanced the people in the Neolithic Revolution. Gardening led to advanced farming which determined if a group of people had a permanent settlement or not.
