The Stone Age is the earliest period of human history, lasting from the first use of stone tools by hominins to the development of metalworking. It is traditionally divided into three periods: the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic.

The Paleolithic period is the longest and most ancient period of the Stone Age. It lasted from about 2.5 million years ago to about 10,000 years ago. During this time, humans were hunter-gatherers who lived in small groups. They made tools and weapons out of stone, bone, and wood.

The Mesolithic period is a transitional period between the Paleolithic and Neolithic periods. It lasted from about 10,000 years ago to about 5,000 years ago. During this time, humans began to domesticate plants and animals. They also began to make more sophisticated tools and weapons out of stone, bone, and wood.

The Neolithic period is the last period of the Stone Age. It lasted from about 5,000 years ago to about 3,000 years ago. During this time, humans began to develop agriculture. They also began to make more sophisticated tools and weapons out of metal.

The Paleocene, Eocene, and Miocene are periods of the Cenozoic Era. The Jurassic, Triassic, and Cretaceous are periods of the Mesozoic Era. The Harappan, Vedic, and Mahajanapada are periods of Indian history.
