Agreed. Long in the context of a human lifetime, but not even an eyeblink in geologic time.
The longest continual culture. So as far as ours goes, what is a speck of an eyeblink.
Exactly.
They observed. They knew the rains would come at certain times of year based on their observations and oral histories. They knew that some plants were edible and some were not based on cause-effect relationships. (Man ate that plant. Man got sick and died. Different man ate different plant. Different man was healthy. That's observation.) They knew that certain herbs were good for certain injuries/illnesses based on observations.
That's science. Observe. Theorize. Test. Perhaps the Australian Aborigines were the first pure scientists. |
Wrong. A faulty, biased assumption. The product of censorship, propaganda and brainwashing. One that again, is assigned and forced on Indigenous Peoples with little understanding and respect. Their explanation, like many Indigenous Peoples is that they communed with Spirit to recieve information. Extremely accurate information. Much like many famous people of our time made major breakthroughs by receiving information in dreams. But your argument is a popular one in our culture, one which was, and is promoted by brute force.
