Anthony Giddens wrote that if the overall history of human existence on the face of the world is taken as a day, agriculture would have come at 11: 56 pm and civilizations 11: 57 pm. Early arrivals Palaeolithic 1, 000 - 9600 BC
11, 000 BC Closing of the Glacial Period 10, 800 -9600 BC Younger Dryas – a cold and arid spell 9600 -5000 BC Climatic optimum: winter days were mild, summer nights humid The Near Eastern Neolithic 9600 -6000 BC 5600 BC: Black Sea joins the Mediterranean (Ryan and Pitman hypothesis)
200 mm annual rainfall line and the distribution of barley and wheat in the Near East, with some Epipalaeolithic and Proto-Neolithic settlements.

Domestication of sheep and goat, cattle. . . • Agricultural technologies: domestication of wheat and barley, legumes. . . • Pottery technologies: discovery of possibilities of clay, with the rising need of long term storage of footstuffs. • Architectural technologies: mudbrick building with extensive use of wood. Mud, mudbrick, pise. Cladding techniques such as plastering, white-washing, wall paintings. Three-dimesnional cult imagery incorporated into the architectonics of the house.
