The first people lived in caves. They lived in big groups to help

each other. Their lives were very dangerous. There were a lot of wild

animals near the caves – mammoths, bears, elephants and other

animals. Cavemen hunted. They killed animals for food and used

their skins for clothes. They also caught fish and picked wild fruit.

Cavemen didn’t live in one place. They followed the animals they

hunted and searched for places where they could find water and food.

Half a million years ago, cavemen started using fire. It was very

important for their lives. They used fire to heat their caves, cook food

and drive wild animals away.

Cavemen made different tools and objects out of stone. They used

them to hunt and cut animals’ skins and meat. Therefore, we call this

period the Stone Age.
