The development of farming occurred independently in at least 7 different parts of the world at the end of the last Ice Age 10,000 years ago.

Farming created a food surplus that allowed larger groups of people to live together and changed not just how they lived but how they thought. New gods were developed to explain animal behavior and the seasonal cycle of crops.
