The Migration of people during the Neolithic era led to the diffusion of agriculture.
The Neolithic which is also called the "New Stone Age", constituted the final division of the Stone Age, started nearly 12,000 years ago when the first development of farming emerged in the Epipalaeolithic Near East, and eventually in other places of the world.
The Neolithic is characterized by a progression of behavioral and cultural characteristics and changes, such as the use of wild and domestic crops and of domesticated animals.
