​  Agricultural Wave:

The first wave started 10,000 years ago. Society consisted of hunters and gatherers. People moved from nomadic wanders to living in villages. People were tied to the land, and it was the basis for financial living and family structures. Family structures were composed of extended families. It wasn’t uncommon to see three generations living in a single home along with other siblings. Energy came from the land and animals. Wood was used for cooking and heating, and animals were used for transportation and farming the land.
