Thank you y’all! This has been really informative! Is there tech that is still used today besides knives and swords?

As Bentresh said, all of our tech is the end of a long line. Without writing we have no history of the source for so many things. For me the most prevalent is textiles and cordage and basketry. In only a few instances do these items get preserved and yet we still use ropes and shoe laces and now we weave items out of carbon fiber.

Fire, not just for cooking, the slash and burn method for cultivation.
