REFLECTION

This topic made me understand the comparison of indigenous science with indigenous technologies and
their importance to our lives. Indigenous science is a product of indigenous knowledge perfected by
people through their life experiences. Indigenous science covers a wide scope of areas, including
metaphysics, philosophy, and practical technologies usually accomplished by people then and now.
Examples of this are the use of herbal medicines, making wines and juices from fruits, and making
products such as vinegar, cheese, and nata de coco. Indigenous technologies are processes or products
that are the results of studying indigenous science. These technologies are now part of our lives when it
comes to medicine, food products, industry, and other aspects of human existence. Examples of this are
medical incubators, 16-bit microchips, and mole removers.
