"Neolithic agriculture" as a book category covers the origins, development, and consequences of the first systematic cultivation of plants and domestication of animals during the Neolithic period (roughly the end of the last Ice Age through the later prehistoric millennia, with regional variation). Works in this category examine archaeological and palaeoecological evidence for early crop and livestock management, technologies and tools (seeds, sickles, grinding stones, irrigation), the rise of sedentary villages and changing household and community organization, and the social, economic, and environmental transformations—such as population growth, labor specialization, property concepts, and landscape modification—that accompanied farming’s spread. Books range from scholarly monographs and regional syntheses to accessible popular science introductions, field reports and lab-method guides (archaeobotany, zooarchaeology), experimental archaeology recreations, and even historical fiction inspired by early farming communities, all emphasizing interdisciplinary perspectives that link ecology, technology, and human behavior.
