I FOUND IT INTERESTING THAT...



        One of the most interesting things I realized early into the first chapter, was that of human migration.  I was in awe of how early humans found routes to different parts of the world, which now we would call Africa, Europe, Spain, France, and Eurasia, etc.  It just amazes me, because back then, they specifically "mapped" out where they would go based on climates and resources.  It may sound a little silly, but I always think to myself, how did they know where they were going?  Clearly they didn't have a handy Apple map app to tell them where to go.  They would base their migration off of finding warmer climates when it became cold, and where they could find better resources such as food, materials for hunting tools, nets, baskets, and pottery.  New technologies would emerge according to the climate that they settled in, that would require more advancements of their technology.  It sounds ridiculous, but just put yourself in their position.  Who would have though to make something out of the materials that they had, and to keep evolving based on their climate and environment.  There was a difference of tools and resources based where nomads would settle. All of this eventually led to the creation of rivers, hills, rocks, watering holes, etc.  All of what we see now are just footprints of how early humans formed the land that we exist on today.  CRAZY.
