That doesnt happen though. They all end up solving the same problems in different ways. Take watercrafts for example. Native Americans made canoes out of a solid log, Polynesians made rafts, the vikings made planked ships, etc.I don't see why not. They all had to solve the same problem - somehow bring a fast moving animal down.
I miss those caveman commercials.the ice age is what created the low water levels and revealed the land bridges,,, as the ice melted the waters rose and covered the land bridges,,
its so simple even a caveman can understand it,,
/----/ Yes fuc*ing way. Try reading some history. It happens all of the time.Its complicated when no one has ever thought of it before. You will also notice that virtually every civilization made the arrows the same way, with feathers at the back, a flat and notched tip on the arrow, with a sharp rock tied the same way at the tip inside the notch.
There is no fucking way a bunch of unconnected cultures invented the exact same thing.
Youre trying to compare disovering oxygen and math with the precise technology of arrow and bow making?/----/ Yes fuc*ing way. Try reading some history. It happens all of the time.
Historians and sociologists have remarked the occurrence, in science, of "multiple independent discovery". Robert K. Merton defined such "multiples" as instances in which similar discoveries are made by scientists working independently of each other.[1] "Sometimes," writes Merton, "the discoveries are simultaneous or almost so; sometimes a scientist will make a new discovery which, unknown to him, somebody else has made years before."[2]List of multiple discoveries - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
Commonly cited examples of multiple independent discovery are the 17th-century independent formulation of calculus by Isaac Newton, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz and others, described by A. Rupert Hall;[3] the 18th-century discovery of oxygen by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, Joseph Priestley, Antoine Lavoisier and others; and the theory of the evolution of species, independently advanced in the 19th century by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace.
Multiple independent discovery, however, is not limited to such famous historic instances. Merton believed that it is multiple discoveries, rather than unique ones, that represent the common pattern in science.[4]
Merton contrasted a "multiple" with a "singleton"—a discovery that has been made uniquely by a single scientist or group of scientists working together.[5]
A distinction is drawn between a discovery and an invention, as discussed for example by Bolesław Prus.[6] However, discoveries and inventions are inextricably related, in that discoveries lead to inventions, and inventions facilitate discoveries; and since the same phenomenon of multiplicity occurs in relation to both discoveries and inventions, this article lists both multiple discoveries and multiple inventions.
They got it off of the internet.There is no fucking way a bunch of unconnected cultures invented the exact same thing.
/——/ If you bothered to read the article it links to inventions that were created at the same time. GEEEZE reading comprehension is not your forte.Youre trying to compare disovering oxygen and math with the precise technology of arrow and bow making?
I already know that they arent the same inventions. That doesnt happen./——/ If you bothered to read the article it links to inventions that were created at the same time. GEEEZE reading comprehension is not your forte.
