Whatever you need a website for, create yours today with Wix: https://www.wix.com/go/infographics2019 According to Greek mythology, an immortal being named Prometheus stole fire from the gods and bestowed it upon humanity, the first of many gifts to enable the beginning of civilization. Early Chinese histories tell of a succession of eight semi-divine leaders who in turn taught hunting, farming, music, working with silk, and all of the practical art2. In similar fashion, the Sumerian god Enki shared the wisdom needed for governing the earliest cities with a group of seven sages. Stories of heroes like these are common around the world. When ancient storytellers looked back, trying to imagine the beginnings of technology, communications systems, and religious customs, the complexity seemed best explained as gifts from a divine intelligence.
