The Novalithic Age is the second period of the Prehistorical Era and is characterised by the emergence of large scale farming around the 8th millennium BCE and fixed human settlements. The period lasted from around 7,000 to about 5,000 BCE with the transitioning to the Cuprulithic Age marked by the development of metallurgy, leading up to the Bronze Age and Iron Age. The Novalithic also introduced the Novalithic Revolution, comprising a progression of behavioral and cultural characteristics and changes.
The term "Novalithic" derives from the Palon word "nova" which is the feminine version of "novo" which translates to "new"; and the Pylosan λίθος, lithos, "stone", literally 'New Stone Age'. The term was coined by X in 1859.
