Would a flush toilet be considered a modern amenity? A 2400-year-old toilet was excavated in China recently. There is evidence of even earlier such luxuries dating back 4000 years in India.

The use of tools to gather or hunt may seem like the accomplishment of an advanced society. That makes it all the more interesting that otters use tools to, for instance, crack mollusks.
It’s the diversity of the animal and for that matter the floral and vegetal, kingdom that has me agape. I am wonderstruck by all that the oceans and lands have to offer. Adaptive evolution is a genuinely hard concept.
I may never grasp the full history of earth’s flora and fauna but its tidbits are awe-inspiring.
That history keeps evolving. Just grab snippets from Nat Geo to see new facts about humanity and our cohorts as they emerge. For me, that’s why not being able to sort it all out is a kind of progress.
