It is believed that cultures around the world developed agriculture independently of each other.

True or false?

Agriculture likely began during the Neolithic Era before roughly 9000 BCE when polished stone tools were developed and the last ice age ended.

Historians have several theories about why many societies switched from hunting and foraging to settled agriculture.

One of these theories is that a surplus in production led to greater population. Not everyone needed to be focused on food production, which led to specialization of labor and complex societies.
