Neolithic
(gcide) | Neolithic \Ne`o*lith"ic\, a. [Neo- + -lith + -ic.] (Archaeol. &
Geol.)
Of or pertaining to, or designating, an era characterized by
late remains in stone; the late stone age. Estimated as
beginning around 9000 b. c. in the Middle East, this period
is characterized by the beginnings of farming, the
domestication of animals, and the manufacture of textiles and
pottery.
[1913 Webster +PJC]
The Neolithic era includes the latter half of the
"Stone age;" the human relics which belong to it are
associated with the remains of animals not yet extinct.
The kitchen middens of Denmark, the lake dwellings of
Switzerland, and the stockaded islands, or "crannogs,"
of the British Isles, belong to this era. --Lubbock.
