AI overview

The Paleolithic was the earliest period of human history, lasting from the emergence of our species until around 10,000 years ago, when people survived by hunting animals and gathering wild plants. It matters because it represents the foundation of human culture and creativity, as evidenced by remarkable achievements like the oldest known figurative paintings created 40,000–52,000 years ago in Indonesia.
