Real World Example

The Paleolithic era, also known as the Old Stone Age, was a time when early humans primarily used simple stone tools for survival. This era was important because it marked the beginning of human tool-making and the development of early societies. People during this time solved problems like hunting for food and protecting themselves from predators using these tools. Today, the Paleolithic era is still relevant as it laid the foundation for human innovation and adaptation, influencing how we solve problems and create technology. For example, when you use a knife to cut food, you're using a tool, a concept that originated from early human innovations during the Paleolithic era.
