Answer to Question 1

D
Duccio and Giotto were influential in making the shift from art styles of the Middle Ages to the quite different styles of the Renaissance.

Answer to Question 2

The Neolithic is named for the new types of stone tools that were developed. A new way of life formed as people learned to cultivate fruits and grains, instead of gathering wild crops, and animals were domesticated for labor, food, and their products. Dugout boats, weapons, and the technology of pottery vastly improved the standard of living. People settled down in one place and began forming cultures, based on their lifestyles and beliefs.
