Concept which defines the collectivity of human beings in relation to the development of their environmental adaptability and to their technological advances. Paleontologists, historians and archaeologists still debate as to when and where precisely the history of human civilization began, but if the starting point is considered to be the emergence of the first planned cities, organized governance and writing, then it is possible to fix a date at approximately 3,000 years B.C. Although humans developed thereafter in varying societies and social systems, anthropologists consider human civilization as a “single organism capable of remarkable complex collective actions in response to environmental challenges.
