During the end of what I entitled “early history” and the time just after that, there were a number of things worth extra notation. Many of these things were technical developments which were related not only to food production but many other aspects of Homo Sapiens interactions. Most notable is that this was the beginning of a major technical acceleration, especially in the western world.
This can be seen starting about 250 years ago when the first electric motor was invented. The inventor Thomas Davenport had trouble getting his motor patented (1844), but eventually he did and he used such a motor to power what was probably the world’s first electric car.
