koreanhistory1-2, Exercise 1: Jeulmun to Mumun

Model answer (a sample; yours will differ):

Between about 8000 and 1500 BC (Jeulmun) people lived by hunting, gathering and small-scale plant cultivation. From about 1500 BC (Mumun) rice appears beside millet, plain pottery dominates, megalithic burials begin, and later bronze objects become the most valued prestige goods (from about 300 BC), with iron tools increasing after 300 BC.

Hedges: the article says rice "was not the dominant crop" in the early and middle Mumun; the Bronze Age label "may be misleading"; local bronze production is "not proven until approximately the 13th century BCE" in the lead but "probably began" c. 700-550 BC in the body (unreconciled).
