Things used in everyday life are the real archaeological treasures! This sewing needle was made from animal bone some 13,000 years ago. Some designs simply don't need to be improved, because form and functions were perfectly matched from the start
Length: 5.6cm

Nina, do we have an idea for how many years ago sewing arose among humans?

@johnb48 @ninawillburger Over 50,000 years ago, to my understanding. Some scientists believe human speech originated later than that!

@ninawillburger That reminds me of learning about a Māori cave where I live here in Ōtautahi-Christchurch, NZ, where assorted needles shaped from bones were recovered.
I just found a 2017 masters thesis from the University of Otago, by Georgia Kerby, on the artifacts recovered from the cave.
In my memory, there was a needle shaped from the bone of a Haast's eagle, at the time the world's largest eagle (now extinct). Georgia more correctly classifies that object as a "winkle picker". I had to look that up. It was a pointed tool used for getting snails out of their shells.

Il senso della vita era più naturale e non doveva sottostare a sensi più vincolanti, a un dualismo così accentuato e alle giustificazioni così necessarie del male e del bene dentro il male?
Il senso della vita era meno ambizioso, rispetto alla follia che viene generata dalla necessità superiore?
