Why did permanent settlements develop in the Neolithic period?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because of agriculture and animal domestication
Agriculture provided a more regular food supply, while domesticated animals supplied food, labour and other resources. These changes encouraged people to stay near fields, water and herds for longer periods, leading to settled villages. Paper currency, railways and printing developed thousands of years later and cannot explain Neolithic settlement.
