, many technological advances occurred. Many of the advances were based on philosophy and religion, but civilization basically developed from technological advances because with and tools and farming techniques, etc. they wouldn't have been able to survive.
In 8000 B.C.E., there was not much technology. Man was living on the environmental supplies around himself. By 6000 B.C.E. technology was really beginning to come out of its shell. Tools and techniques for farming were being invented to make a person's lifestyle become much easier. The idea of the wheel influenced many civilizations, which eventually led to horse-drawn carriages and much later led to automobiles. Irrigation systems also were a huge influence on civilizations because it was a benefactor to farming which was a benefactor to growing fruits and vegetables.
Civilization, although a major part of life, ultimately developed from technology and its growth. If someone today could imagine what life would be without technology, it probably would not be the best way of living. Now the early people of ancient civilizations obviously didn't have the technology that we have today, but their inventions were the supreme influences on our technology. The technology they had was outstanding for the point in time, and the inventions that were fabricated helped make a person's way of living a whole lot easier. .
Construction was a huge technological advance as well. The construction of buildings, palaces, and monuments were extraordinary, and many of them still stand today. The advance of construction gave people homes, which was actually more or less a luxury at the times, but it was still a great advance in technology. Monuments like pyramids, sculptures, and the infamous Great Wall of China were erected in ancient times and they helped influence the style of many of today's architectures. .
Technology in ancient times wasn't like it is today, because a new invention didn't come out every five seconds.
