Discovering Our Ancestor's Creativity

Discovering Our Ancestor's Creativity

I have always had a fascination with history.

The fascination with history lies in its ability to provide insight into the past and understand how the present came to be. 

Scientists have found evidence of remarkable creativity and innovation in our early ancestors, challenging assumptions about their capabilities. 

Our ancestors controlled fire 1 million years ago, crafted stone-tipped spears 500,000 years ago, and used birch bark glue 200,000 years ago. They even used insect-repelling leaves in bedding 77,000 years ago. 

Artifacts such as musical instruments and cave art dating back to 43,000-35,000 years ago have suggested a deep appreciation for the arts and music.


Creativity was (and is) tied to survival and adaptation in changing environments. 


These discoveries offer insights into our evolutionary history and the traits that have made us who we are today.


Learning about the history of creativity inspires new ideas and perspectives.


These ideals help me develop a deeper understanding of my own creative potential.
