Describe the paleolithic age including when it occurred

Paleolithic or Old Stone Age took place between 3.3 million years ago to 11,650 years ago.

It comprises most of the hominins presence on the planet! It is divided into three sub-periods based on the technology and artifacts humans used.

During the Lower Paleolithic hominins lived as hunter-gatherers and used rudimentary stone tools.

Some 50,000 years ago, humans developed more complex artifacts and tools. We can find evidence of fishing and elaborated weapons. There's also evidence of the first forms of religious ceremonies and art.

The Paleolithic ends with the extensive use of Agriculture.
