With the Neolithic Age we entered the force field of domestication, leaving — not without a struggle — the free, face-to-face world of band society/community. Ever-larger settlements, more work, the emergence of warfare and the objectification of women were among the hallmarks of the new order, starting about 10,000 years ago.
