Answer:

             Most scholars believe Hinduism started somewhere between 2300 B.C. and 1500 B.C. in the Indus Valley, near modern-day Pakistan. But many Hindus argue that their faith is timeless and has always existed.

             Unlike other religions, Hinduism has no one founder but is instead a fusion of various beliefs.

              Around 1500 B.C., the Indo-Aryan people migrated to the Indus Valley, and their language and culture blended with that of the indigenous people living in the region. There’s some debate over who influenced who more during this time.

              The period when the Vedas were composed became known as the “Vedic Period” and lasted from about 1500 B.C. to 500 B.C. Rituals, such as sacrifices and chanting, were common in the Vedic Period.

              The Epic, Puranic and Classic Periods took place between 500 B.C. and 500 A.D. Hindus began to emphasize the worship of deities, especially Vishnu, Shiva and Devi.

              The concept of dharma was introduced in new texts, and other faiths, such as Buddhism and Jainism, spread rapidly.

British India was split into what are now the independent nations of India and Pakistan, and Hinduism became the major religion of India. Starting in the 1960s, many Hindus migrated to North America and Britain, spreading their faith and philosophies to the western world.

Tell me if I'm wrong.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

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.
