Due to the Neolithic Revolution, the economic, social, and lifestyle status of the nomadic peoples dramatically changed in countless ways. A few ways is by shifting from hunting animals and gathering plants to producing food by systematic agriculture, domesticating animals, building villages, and creating religions. Although not an overnight transition, these changes truly began the bare basics of an economy, not to mention allowed nomads to stay in one place and start up a prosperous group of people. This shift also affected nomads and hunter-gatherers socially and in their everyday lifestyle by allowing them to “settle down” and build structures to keep material possessions for once, which they were not allowed to do when traveling constantly.
