Beer – One of the world’s oldest beverages, and arguably one of history’s most important. The discovery of beer changed man from leading a primarily hunter-gatherer lifestyle, to settling down into villages and cultivating cereal grains. As brewing beer became more widespread, the safe consumption of liquid infused with high levels of Vitamin B and protein (from the yeast) increased health and life expectancy.

Beer (Mesopotamia & Egypt) 10,000 BCE: The exact date of when the first beer was brewed is unknown, but it is believed to have been discovered in an area known as the Fertile Crescent around 10,000 BCE. 9000 BCE: Starting around 9000 BCE, instead of gathering wild grains, people began to deliberately plant and farm barley and wheat for the use of beer and other foods. 8000 BCE: Villagers living in the Fertile Crescent start contributing to the common storehouse. These contributions such as beer and food were recorded using small, clay tokens. The small, clay tokens used for records are known as the first grounds for present day accounting, writing, and bureaucracy.
