The beginnings of science arose from human curiosity and developed throughout various civilizations. Its earliest roots can be traced to the Ancient Near East (Egypt and Mesopotamia) around 3000–1200 BC, with further development in Ancient Greece, where philosophy played a crucial role as the "mother" of science, before finally flourishing in modern and contemporary times.
We are not discussing the beginning of the birth of science starting from philosophy, but rather where the beginning of the birth of science and technology came from.
Ancient humans are known to have developed technology, even though they lacked writing or language. The technology they developed was certainly very simple, originating from stones. Ancient humans used stones found in the natural environment to help meet their daily needs. This stone technology developed over a very long period of time. This is the basis for experts to divide Stone Age culture into three periods: the Paleolithic (Old Stone Age), Mesolithic (Middle Stone Age), and Neolithic (Middle Stone Age).
