Bipedalism Bipedalism(walking on two feet) was first discovered in AA in a female hominid named Lucy around 3 to 4 million years ago. Walking on two feet has allowed human beings to have their hands free and do great things.
Having access to our wonderful hands now allows us to innovate a better future. We can now design greater homes and buildings for us to live and discover in.
Control of Fire Control of fire was first found in Homo Erectus from 1.8 to .2 million years ago in Africa and Asia. The ability to use fire allows humans to cook and smelt food and metal, and also heat themselves.
Shelter In the Paleolithic Age the shelter that the hominids had all depended on their food source and if they rested in caves or tents made of sticks and skins.
Development of Trade The development of trade began in the Neolithic Age around 2500 B.C.E. when people started to realize that everything had its own level of value and need.
Weaving Weaving was first discovered in the Neolithic Age around 6000 B.C.E. when the people began farming to create a stable food supply. Without having to worry about food anymore, they started to create art such as weaving.
Irrigation systems today are made up of pipes, reservoirs, and natural water supplies. These several things are used to transport water and body waste.
Wheel The first wheel dates back to 3500 B.C.E., in which time it was created by the Sumerians in Southern Europe. What people believe happened was they were dragging a sled on two square planks of wood when the edges of the sled began cutting a large slit in the planks.
