An oil basin is an area or extension of land that at some point in the past was found submerged or under sea or
river levels.
As a consequence of this activity, the sediments carried by the water underwent a process of accumulation.
These sediments were particularly rich in organic decomposition, whether of animal or vegetal origin. Over the
centuries, these elements were decomposed and were trapped in the layers of rock that form the current subsoil.
This is the origin of petroleum as it is believed today, and the evidence that validates it is that in all the petroleum
deposits there are sediments of animal or vegetal origin.
The Venezuela's most important petroleum basins are the following are: Gulf of Venezuela, Maracaibo Lake,
Falcon, Barinas-Apure, Cariaco, Eastern Basin, Orinoco Oil Belt.

Technology is the reason humans have risen to a dominant role on our planet, above all other
species. We are not the strongest or the fastest, in fact we're quite weak in relation to many other
animals. But our brains, and our technology have allowed us to dominate our world. The most
important discovery in human history is the harnessing of fire, which allowed us to operate in
darkness, keep warm in the winter, and cook food. There is no set date to think about the invention
of fire, however.
The first great invention, then, was agriculture. Ancient peoples collected wild grains to eat as
long ago as 20,000 BC, but didn't start growing these crops until 13,000 BC and 6,000 BC, depending on the region.
One of the earliest crops to be domesticated was rice, in China in around 11,000 BC.
Agriculture includes animals, of course, and the earliest animals to be domesticated are believed to be pigs, in 13,000
BC in Macedonia. The switch to agriculture is crucial, as it provides a food surplus. This surplus means that not
everyone has to be involved in food production, freeing people up to conduct trade and advance science and the arts.

Other crucial inventions are the wheel, invented by the Greeks, which allowed people to carry heavy goods; as well
as nails, invented by the Romans, without which construction was difficult.
Another great, world-shaking invention was the compass. The compass was invented between 200 BC and 100 AD
in China. Prior to the compass, mariners had to use the sun and stars to navigate, which meant it was impossible to
steer when the sky was overcast. The invention allowed accurate navigation in any weather... though the compass
was first used for feng shui, or the construction of houses to be harmonious with the environment.
Probably the most significant medieval achievement was the printing press, without which modern civilization
wouldn't be possible. It was invented in Johannes Gutenberg in 1436. Though imprinting symbols or images via
stencils and ink had been known in Europe and China for hundreds of years, Gutenberg mechanized the process,
improving its speed and efficiency. Up until then, books had to be painstakingly copied by hand, but now they could
be mass-produced easily.
About fifty years after the invention of the printing press, twenty million volumes had been mass-produced. This led
to a rise of literacy never seen before and directly contributed to the Protestant Reformation as it allowed average
people to access the Bible.
One of the greatest inventions, which today we take for granted, is the lightbulb. There were several contributors to
the field before Thomas Edison came along, but today he is credited with the invention of the first
practical incandescent light bulb. He tried thousands of times to create the lightbulb before managing to do so in
1879. This invention revolutionized the world.
When asked about the thousands of times he'd failed to create the lightbulb, Edison replied 'I didn't fail. I just found
2,000 ways now not to make a lightbulb; I only needed to find one way to make it work.' Who the next great inventor
will be is up in the air.
