The History of the Concept of Property

Way back during the primitive era, everything was conjugal. The people from that era knew how to share things. They were nomads. They lived life pretty simply, being the parasites of nature, as historians call it, for they simply move from one place to another as long as the resources began to deplete slowly each day, that it reaches the point where it can’t support them anymore.

Then people discovered farming, or how to plant things. The concept of property began here. The surplus from the plants that they have rooted from the ground became theirs, and they stopped sharing. People who needed the surplus from the ones who have them only was able to pay through labor. Eventually the concept of property evolved to feudal property, and to what we are now today.
