The History of Technology - Discovery
<p>The History of Technology </p><p>Part One – </p><p>Discovery</p><p><br/></p><p>After mankind first crawled out of the primordial ooze, got banished from the perfect garden or was molded from humble clay, what was its first innovation?</p><p>Was it fire? No, I’d argue fire was harnessed by man, found and put to use by a people afraid of the monsters in the dark.</p><p>Perhaps it was speech? But no, different forms of communication are evident in animals, fungi and even plants.</p><p>Maybe it was the spear, to better provide food, maybe the wheel, to transport ourselves and goods, maybe it was clothing, to keep ourselves warm in the harsh winter nights. Perhaps even something as abstract as ideas: such as farming and cooking.</p><p>There is no way to know for sure which was the first spark that lit the metaphorical fire of invention. All we do know is that we have never stopped fanning that flame.</p><p><br/></p><p>Innovation Through the Ages</p><p>Though some archeologists will argue on the specific delineations for the progress of humankind’s evolution of technology, there is generally an accepted division for the various eras in tech evolution. Initially, these were named for the specific material or technology which ushered in that particular age of progress, when the greatest research available was finding new ways to use whatever we could dig up from the ground.</p><p>It is important to note that these ages didn’t begin and conclude concurrently around the world, some places simply skipped certain eras and moved straight on. This is a simple general overview, maybe we’ll explore specific breakdowns for various parts of the world sometime later.</p>
