Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Early use of fire
Early use of fire. Historical artwork of early humans gathered around a fire. There is evidence for the controlled use of fire over one million years ago. Such use of fire distinguishes humans from other animals, allowing humans to keep warm, cook food, and scare away predators. The key role of fire is thought to have led to it being central to many religious and social customs and rituals. Fire also led to new technologies, such as metal- working and lighting technologies.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in human history - the early use of fire. In this historical artwork, we witness our primitive ancestors gathered around a crackling fire, showcasing evidence of controlled fire usage over one million years ago. This remarkable ability to harness and control fire sets humans apart from other animals, granting us the power to keep warm, cook food, and ward off predators. The significance of fire cannot be overstated as it played a key role in shaping religious and social customs and rituals throughout time. It became central to our lives, leading to the development of new technologies such as metal-working and lighting advancements. The image transports us back to an era when these groundbreaking innovations were just beginning to take root. Within this mesmerizing scene lies a diverse group: men, women, priests - all united by their shared reverence for this transformative element. As they gather outside a cave under the watchful eyes of their tribe members, one can almost hear stories being told or ancient ceremonies taking place. This illustration from Physique Populaire (E. Desbeaux) serves as a window into our prehistoric past - an anthropological treasure that sheds light on humanity's journey towards progress and enlightenment. It reminds us how far we have come while honoring those who paved the way for civilization as we know it today.
