Solution
During the Palaeolithic Age, early man was a food gatherer. He wandered from place to place in search of food. He hunted wild animals for their meat which they ate raw. With the discovery of fire, he learned to roast meat. During the Neolithic Age, an early man began to grow food crops. He became a food-producer. Hence, he settled in one place, began the domestication of useful animals and stored grains for future use in pots.
