The Prehistoric Epoch - 200 000 B.C. - XII c. B. C.

Prehistory and the beginning of the real Bulgarian history are two continually, old epochs -- the prehistoric and the antique. In the prehistoric epoch - since the appearance of the first human bergs in the Paleolite (200 000B.C.) till the end of the Irons Age (XII c. B. C.) - a long way was passed in the organization of community: from the primitive herd to the tribe and war-times unions, from the use of roughly - shaped flint tools till the creation of metal ones, from the essence not only of his existence, but the place of his community in an entire process, as well. This is an era, in which a big transformation is done: from the life in caves till the building of planned and organized villages, from the equity till the property and social differential and the amass of wealth in the hands of the tribal chiefs, elders and priests that formed the aristocracy.
