    Just for the future, if you mix ash with sap, it make an extremely strong adhesive. The only thing is, in order to use it, it must be applied while hot from a fire. Everyone like so he can see!

    This explanation of the guide about how the float copper was formed and distributed has to be one of the best explanations I've heard from a guide. In my experience guides are usually either under estimating me and dumbing down their language, or they are just temporary guides and don't know much about the subject themselves. It is rare to find a good guide that both knows everything about what they are showing and don't hold back in sharing information. I usually get into small arguments with guides when they for example tell contradicting stories and I confront them about it.

    Those tools are for fine work - not chopping down trees. To cut down a tree stone age style, build a small fire at the base all around. break a couple of rocks and use the sharp edges to clear away the char from the fire. Continue with this process: small fire, sharp rock to scrape away the charred wood, repeat, etc. You can fell good sized trees this way. You can also "dig out" a dug out canoe this way. Fell your tree with the small fire and scraping rocks, then build a small fire where you want the end of your canoe - use previous method to "cut" canoe log to size. Select which side of your log you want as the inside, build a small fire along the top of that - continue with small fire and scrape method until you have a dug out canoe. The fire will also somewhat water proof the inside of your new canoe.

    I know the new thrust here is to quickly move up the tech tree but I think it would be really fun if you decided to pick just one of these advancements and try to get really good with it, as a small side project. Maybe its not hand worked copper, but something similar that interests you. Every couple months you could check back in and show us your progress, show us how far your copper arrow heads have come, or how well-polished and pretty the new ceremonial copper axe is.
    Just something to think about. I know I really enjoy watching someone master a skill rather than just try it out, and its deeply satisfying to see a beautiful hand-built object.

      @yoonmikim5663 5 років тому +6

      Anthropologist here. This is the Victorian concept of the caveman, but probably not the truth, since they had hyoid bones like us, so had language like us. It's just that we aren't sure what that language was. They were just as smart as us, just didn't have the discoveries we do. (and some people would also argue smarter if they were foraging, too.)
      Also, often caves were either used for mostly ritualistic purposes, or to escape the heat most of the time. Up through stone henge, when they were making huts, etc, often caves or mounds were used purely for ritual.
      With any new technology, though, there is a period of transition where some people lag behind others. You've probably seen that in your own lifetime.
