　　In the earliest stages of man's development he hadno more need of money than animals have. He wascontent with very simple forms of shelter, made hisown rough tools and weapons and could providefood and clothing for himself and his family fromnatural materials around him. As he became morecivilized, however, he began to want better shelter,more efficient tools and weapons, and morecomfortable and more lasting clothing than could beprovided by his own neighborhood or by the work ofhis own unskilled hands. For these things he had toturn to the skilled people such as smiths, leatherworkers or carpenters. It was then that the question of payment arose.

　　At first he got what he wanted by a simple process of exchange. The smith who had not thetime to look after land or cattle was glad to take meat or grain from the farmer in exchangefor an axe or a plough. But as more and more goods which had no fixed exchange valuecame on the market, exchange became too complicated to be satisfactory. Another problemarose when those who made things wanted to get stocks of wood or leather, or iron, but hadnothing to offer in exchange until their finished goods were ready.

　　Thus the difficulties of exchange led by degrees to the invention of money. In some countrieseasily handled things like seeds or shells were given a certain value and the farmer, instead ofpaying the smith for a new axe by giving him some meat or grain, gave him so many shells. Ifthe smith had any shells left when he had bought his food, he could get stocks of the rawmaterials of his trade. In some countries quite large things such as cows or camels or even bigflat stones were used for trade. Later, pieces of metal, bearing values according to the rarity ofthe metal and the size of the pieces, or coins were used. Money as we know it had arrived.
