Early humans lived a nomadic lifestyle, moving from place to place in search of food. They lived in temporary shelters like huts or caves and used tools made of wood, bones, and stones for hunting, gathering food, and protection. One of the most important discoveries was fire, which allowed early humans to cook food and provide warmth. Over time, as humans learned new skills and developed tools, they began living in permanent settlements near reliable sources of water like rivers. Their houses evolved from temporary structures to more permanent dwellings made of materials like wood, mud, and straw.
