Civilizations Lost and Gone
Yesterday (Sunday) I spent time at the British Museum - a really worthwhile experience! It was amazing to see the different cultural interpretations on life per se. From the North American Indians to the Egyptions and Assyrians, each culture was indelibly influenced by the environment in which it existed and it seems as if most past civilizations had a far more complex and reverant association with the natural world than we have. I wonder what future archeologists will make of our civilization? A world of technocrats without spiritual anchoring? Or a world where the ultimate goal of technology became the empowerment of the natural world?
