Because its hard to carry a herd of sheep in your pocket. |

to replace barter, as has been said, because it's a lot easier to carry money around than cows. |

Barter is not always an option. If yo work for a newspaper, would you like to be paid in a pile of papers every day? And how would you trade them for food, power, a new computer? |

money started after ppl started to fight abt the value of the items bartered.... example:
does 20 cows equate 40 sheep?? why yes! why no! we get whool from sheep.... but we get milk from cow... and so, fights began...
until rocks, stones, shining jewels (precious metals) were means of evaluation for an item's worth.
thus a cow may be 20 shells, and a sheep would be 15 shells and it would be easy to trade.
of course this is not how banks and LC-s(letter of credits) were brought forward, although they followed similar logic. |
