Urban_revolution - 3 reference results
In anthropology and archaeology, the urban revolution is the process by which small, kin-based, nonliterate agricultural villages are transformed into large, socially complex, civilized urban centres.

The term "urban revolution" was introduced by V. Gordon Childe, an Australian archaeologist.

Within the Urban revolution brought human achievements such as the pyramids, organized religion, calendars, and mathematics. The Sumerians and Babylonians are credited with discovering mathematics.

The earliest representation of an urban revolution would be that of the Neolithic Revolution. During this time, many Hunter-Gatherer Societies adapted the use of farming techniques to steadily supply their peoples with food. These allowed for the development of sedentary lifestyles and cultures, which in essence are the roots of an urban revolution.
