During the 7th millennium BC, agriculture spread from Anatolia to the Balkans.

World population was essentially stable at around 5 million people living, mostly scattered around the globe in small hunter-gatherer bands. In the agricultural communities of the Middle East, the cow was domesticated and use of pottery became common, spreading to Europe and South Asia, and the first metal (gold and copper) ornaments were made.
