    The document summarizes the three periods of the Stone Age - Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic. During the Paleolithic period, early humans created simple stone tools and developed artistic expression through cave paintings and sculptures. The Mesolithic period saw the domestication of dogs and the transition to herding. In the Neolithic period, humans began farming, domesticating animals, building permanent settlements, and developing more advanced stone tools and decorative pottery. Art forms progressed from simple rock paintings and engravings to wall paintings and megalithic structures.
