After reading these passages, I gained a lot of insight of how early humans use of fire are pretty much the same as our use today. This shows that early humans were slowly evolving from apes to men, these are very significant to our growing brains, these people used fire to cooked red meat and the protein from the red meat helped with the growth of the human brain. Each generation that stems from eating red meat is very significant. Fire became a source of light and warmth, that allowed Homo erectus the ability to leave Africa and migrate to Asia and cold parts around the world. The reason we now have more races and colors all over the world, it is because of the invention of fire.
One of the more useful inventions beside the invention of fire is of course the invention of the wheel. The wheel starts off as a piece of round rock created by the Homo erectus, which is the smarter of the early Homo sapiens. The wheel went a lot of transformations over the year. The wheel was used to navigate large ships, also was used behind horses to pull coaches and now the wheel is used to move our vehicles. We owe our use of transportation to them.
Reading the section on early writing I gained a very good insight, especially seeing how writing has changed over centuries. From cave writing to European writings, cave writings were mainly pictures on a cave wall that tells a story and warns other cave men of dangers. Some countries still uses that type of image writings, which are called hieroglyphics, countries like Egypt, Asia.
As a student wanting to embark in the education field, it is important for us to learn the history of all types of teachings; we must learn our past in order to figure out how to continue evolving. Being a teacher mean we have to learn a lot about early life in order to be successful.
