Marius Gundersen - mdg 🌻It's wild to think about how short human history is. For example, the iron age started approximately 1200BC, which means that if you are 32 years old you have been alive for 1% of the time humans have used iron. If you are 54 years old then you have lived through 1% of horses being domesticated, the wheel being used for transport, written language and living in towns. 🤯

@gundersen yet if you are 100, you've only been alive for 0,03 % of the time Homo sapiens have existed @txerren
@protoeuskaldun @txerren that's the interesting thing, as humans left Africa to settle the world around 50 000 years ago, and all the interesting things (OK, what I find interesting) happened after the last ice age 12 000 years ago. That is, a 120 year old had been alive for 1% of modern humans forming agricultural civilizations.
txerren 🇵🇸@gundersen @protoeuskaldun we are certainly accelerating the pace ^^
