Evergreen Technology: Time-Tested Tools and Timeless Skills
The Long View of Human Tools For most of human history, technology evolved slowly. A basket woven in 3000 BCE used techniques recognizable to a basket maker in 1800 CE. A bronze axe head from ancient Greece differs little in principle from one forged in medieval England. This wasn’t stagnation—it was refinement. Each generation tested,Continue reading “Evergreen Technology: Time-Tested Tools and Timeless Skills”
