Cite an insight  I have seen that even though they are from different civilizations, there are still similarities in the way they have expound their technology, from having plants as a form of medicine, writings,
about the different
agricultural development , mathematics as well as the arts and crafts there are hint of similarities, however you can still see the difference despite all of the similarities because each civilization
cradles of

civilization, What technology way back from the civilizations, and is now passed on to the younger generations where all the gained knowledge from them are being developed in a way that the invention could fit
can you conclude the society just like how their invention fit their civilization.
