| dc.description.abstract | For thousands of years mankind lived in groups of collectors, hunters, and finally shepherds dependent on
environmental resources. Once these resources were exhausted people moved to the other areas. Settlers brought a
great change, which was a consequence of the activities in the cultivation of the land. Human permanent residence
appeared, new social groups appeared. Settling led to acceleration of development of civilization and culture.
Basic agricultural tools were invented. The invention of the wheel and sail boat intensified transport. With time
more complex structures appeared: watermill, windmill. Despite these improvements in the historic communities life
went on in rhythm regulated by the sunrises and sunsets, the sequential seasons. Wars, battles, conquests formed
outside sequence of historical processes. Their inner side represented civilizational development, determined by
technological inventions and organization of work. | en_EN |
