So? Not a comment to the OP personally, just a comment about the title. Humans have been smart and resourceful for thousands of years. This should not be a surprise.

I've been watching Great Courses "Early Middle Ages" and reading a lot of well-researched historical fiction about Europe between the Fall of Rome and the Battle of Hastings. A lot was going on during those 500 years.

One can't help but wonder if we're cycling out of the era of remarkable accomplishment for Western Civilization. Lots of the same mistakes are being made as the ones that collapsed Rome.

Navigation is older than civilization, that is becoming clearer. Alas, history tends to have been written by landlubbers.
