In early societies money was unknown and man

relied on a simple system of exchange. Perhaps

a good hunter had more animal skins than he
could use. His neighbor, a good fisherman might
have too many fish, but needed furs to protect
his children from the cold. Both soon realized
that to solve their problems they could
exchange their surplus.
This method of exchanging is called barter. The
word comes from the French barter.
Barter was important when the needs were
mostly for clothing, food, and shelter. but the
system had its problems. For example, a weaver
who wanted to change his cloth for a good catch
of fish might not be able to find a fisherman who
needed cloth. And a farmer with too much corn
might not be able to find a hunter with too many
deer. When labor and services became more
specialized, barter no longer could function of
payment. A new system had to be found.
