Origins: The Journey Of Humankind

One of the ultimate events that created modern society was man's ability to harness fire. Fire gives humans the power to create, transform and destroy, but it also comes with a price.

Humans continuously wage war with deadly microscopic organisms that evolve, attack and fight back. Medical knowledge from the past may help defeat viruses today.

Despite society evolving throughout the years, the invention of money continues to affect the values and commodities of humankind.

The modern-day power of mobile phones and wireless connections allows billions of people to communicate globally and make their voices and ideas more accessible.

Wars continue to shape society today. Wars revolutionise communication, transportation and weaponary but also bring out the best and worst of humanity.

From meagre bone and straw huts to towering skyscrapers, the creation of these new monuments and building structures defines mankind as an ever-growing and modern race.
