• Horticultural
• Agricultural
![Page 71: Sociology Unit 2: Culture and Society](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042500/55a5a1c51a28ab8f588b45a0/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

• Trade and inequality emerge
• Property is passed between generation
![Page 73: Sociology Unit 2: Culture and Society](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042500/55a5a1c51a28ab8f588b45a0/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
