Living in the modern world of science and technology, when scientists are constantly developing something new and interesting, it is difficult to imagine how people did without all this a few centuries ago.
Lacking elementary devices at hand, not knowing the language and writing, people constantly strived to achieve and learn something, thereby paving the way to modernity. If you go back even for a minute to those times, we can assume that only learning from your own mistakes and hard work contributed to the fact that in today's world people enjoy all these conveniences and benefits without any restrictions.
Fire and light
Today they are ranked first among all the most ingenious inventions. Having managed to overcome the natural element, which manifested itself in the form of forest fires and volcanic eruptions, primitive people were able to tame fire and bring it to their homes. After that, fire became a constant companion of man, which helped in the fight against predators, diseases, hunger and frost. Gradually, people learned how to make fire on their own, and even later turned it into the first prerequisite for the development of electricity.
Already today, with one click of the fingers in modern apartments, the lights are turned on and the fireplace is turned on, thereby demonstrating how important and necessary this discovery of primitive people was for the next generation.
Writing
Probably, it is no secret to anyone that this is the second most important discovery of mankind. If it were not for the development of writing, people would have remained at the level of communication that was several centuries ago. Starting from simple sticks on the ledges of rocks and ending with figured hieroglyphs, writing formed the basis for the development of many civilizations and countries.
It was with the help of it that primitive people brought the entire history of their formation and formation to modern times, fixing all the necessary information with the help of certain symbols.
Already in the modern world, writing is perceived as a constant component of humanity, without which it is impossible to take even a step, while even in infancy, with mother's milk, a person is transferred to the concept of what writing is and why it is needed. Few people think about the fact that writing had to be invented at all.
Among the great inventions of mankind, which have reached and improved to the present time, one can also distinguish the telephone, and the car, and penicillin, and much more. At the same time, constant progress is moving forward so quickly that many of the discoveries made by primitive people have long become history, while new achievements have rightfully taken their place.
