I was under the impression that iron smelting was first developed in Africa. Was I mistaken?--Polyparadigm 08:11, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Why does the list stop at 1980? I was expecting to find carbon nanotubes at least. Enisbayramoglu (talk) 14:09, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is a rather random list of things, some the development of materials processes, some just asorted generic scientific discoveries — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.26.10.113 (talk) 00:10, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

AFAIK the transition from single material (hand axes of stone) to composite material tools is considered some sort of technological watershed. In general, though, should there be a place for tech related to fibre? Fiber can be used for cloth (woven or feltet), and rope. Rope can be used for bowstrings, fishing lines, nets, leashes, harnesses, rigging, cranes ... unless all of this is so pre-historic that it would be difficult to accomodate? Speaking of Savile Row, there is of course the 13th century invention of the button, now indispensable for clothing. A minor detail, though.
