The longest period of man's prehistoric cultural calendar is the Paleolithic era, which spans approximately 2.5 million years, from the earliest known use of stone tools by hominins to around 10,000 BCE. This era is characterized by the development of hunter-gatherer societies, art, and early forms of social organization. It is divided into three phases: Lower, Middle, and Upper Paleolithic, each marked by significant advancements in technology and cultural practices. The transition to the Neolithic era, marked by the advent of agriculture, signifies the end of this extensive prehistoric period.
