The Neolithic Agricultural Revolution refers to the process that happened roughly 12,000 years before the Common Era in which societies around the world developed agriculture. In the Middle East's Fertile Crescent, China's Yangtze River Valley, and Mesoamerica, sedentary agriculture made people less nomadic, develop city-states, and create non-portable arts. These changes did not revolutionize societal relationships, but instead built hierarchies and reinforced societal inequalities.

Seed crops were first cultivated 10,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent region of Southwestern Asia.

The Neolithic Revolution was when seed and root crops were first cultivated by humans and occurred at roughly 10,000 B.C.E.

The “Neolithic Revolution” is another name for the First Agricultural Revolution. The “Neolithic Revolution” happened at different times in different parts of the world, but it happened first in Ancient Mesopotamia (also called “The Fertile Crescent”) approximately ten-thousand years ago. The “Neolithic Revolution” marks the transition of human society from wandering hunter-gatherer societies into settled agricultural communities. This is one of the most important transitions in human history as it led to the rise of cities, civilizations, religions, culture, and a great many more things.

The “First Agricultural Revolution,” also called the “Neolithic Revolution” first took place in a region of the modern-day Middle East called “Mesopotamia” or “The Fertile Crescent.” This occurred roughly ten thousand years ago. It most likely occurred next in the area surrounding the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers in China.

The term “domestication” refers to the process by which a plant or animal is tamed by human society so that that plant or animal can be reliably utilized to provide for human sustenance. "Pastoralism" refers to an ethos that values rural living.

The Agricultural Revolution of East Asia took place first in China, in the fertile valleys of the Yangtze River. From there it spread eastwards to Korea and Japan and southwards to Southeast Asia. The term "agricultural hearth" refers to early settled agricultural regions (usually along rivers).

The “Neolithic Revolution” is another name for the First Agricultural Revolution, which began in the Fertile Crescent of the near Middle East, and then gradually spread outwards into Europe and North Africa.

Most experts agree that the first animal to be domesticated by humans was the goat in modern-day Turkey or Syria, around ten thousand years ago. Dogs were also domesticated relatively early, and some agricultural historians contend that they were domesticated before goats and sheep. This is probably true for some parts of the world, but the general consensus is that goats and sheep were the first animals to be domesticated by humans in large numbers.

The “Neolithic Revolution” is another name for the First Agricultural Revolution. This is when agriculture was first widely practiced on earth. It led to the rise of cities, civilizations, and empires, as well as many other things. Before the advent of agriculture, most humans were nomadic “hunter-gatherers” - who relied on the hunting and killing of wild animals and the gathering of berries and fruits to survive.
