A direct result of division of labor in early farming communities is social roles began to change. Humans began to live settled in a settlement, dividing the tasks and roles of each individual.
EXPLANATION
About 12,000 years ago, the human community began to function very neatly, different from previous civilizations. Previously, people only relied on hunting or gathering food because social order had not yet been formed. Each individual dID the same thing. Later, the next civilization created a system for producing food efficiently and organized.
The first civilization of this period was thought to have arisen in the area of large river valleys, where many fertile soils and rivers were found that provided water for safe irrigation and transportation routes. From here, the social order began to form. Around 10,000 BC, humans began to build systematic farming villages. Humans began to live settled in a settlement, dividing the tasks and roles of each individual (everyone has own specialization) so that not everyone has to devote full time to find food. Through this system, a food surplus was obtained. Food supplies became abundant.
Another important effect of the creation of this new social order was the evolution of the idea of ownership of something (especially on land ownership). In the era of hunting and gathering food, humans were not familiar with this concept because they lived nomadic lives. Whereas in the era of collective farming, humans were required to have a clear division of land ownership to avoid the possibility of disputes. Then, a leader who had the role of regulating and making normative codes was appointed.
