THE WORLD BEFORE THE ICE
This is the last book in our volumes of human history.
Not because history ends here. But because here the four
great expressions of the human plan (the Caucasian
winter, the African spring, the Asian summer, and now the
American autumn) finally converge into a single story.
Before this convergence can begin, let us summarize the
foundations laid in the first three books.
If we had to choose one aspect of humanity that reveals
who we are, it is that we, as humans, are inherently
egalitarian in our social structures.
We demand equality in all matters concerning livelihood and power.
In short, we, humans, value our freedom and self-
determination above all.
We have good reasons for this position, learned through
difficult experiences. As a result, we inherently hate and
fear giving anyone the power to control our lives. All
decisions on matters that concern everyone must be
made by all.
This fundamental human value has resurfaced over
hundreds of thousands of years of world history. It is this
plan that has separated us from the animal kingdom and
allowed us to live together with a semblance of productive
peace, which is a fundamental prerequisite for all of us.
And even more importantly, the combination of our
thoughts, instincts, energy, and hearts has given us
enormous advantages in navigating our perilous journey
through a sufficiently turbulent world, without having to
deal with the ego-driven blind who exploit their own.
Over 98% of our human timeline, this chosen lifestyle has
been carefully monitored and vigorously defended.
That said, we humans are not predetermined at birth.
What happens to us shapes what we carry with us, a
reality that was proven in Volume One.
The people who ultimately populated the Americas
experienced a version of the same fate as those in the
Caucasian winter: generations of harsh and cold isolation
during the last Ice Age, similar to what happened to those
who were to become the global predators of our world.
Yes, the Native Americans also carried the original
egalitarian spirit and a hierarchical fear from the Ice Age
within them, born this time not from scarcity, as at a cliff in
the Caucasus, but from an extreme, life-threatening
environment that required not one specialist, but two for
the survival of the clan.
These experts were both empowered due to their vital
skills.This dual power clashed and danced around control,
essentially reflecting our human struggle between those
who take life and those who protect it.
Another essential aspect distinguished the survivors of the
Ice Age in Europe or Asia from those in Beringia. When the
predators of the steppes finally broke free from their own
captivity, they found lands of other peoples where they
could settle.
However, when the ice walls of Beringia melted and the
first Americans were released, they found two whole
continents, practically to themselves.
Here is this story: how a people, shaped by their own
experiences with the demands of the Ice Age, built, broke,
and rebuilt their codes over fifteen thousand years.
Before their distant counterparts, who bore the opposite
legacy of the same shared trauma of the Ice Age, arrived
by boat and took from them both what each fought for -
nourishing lands and an egalitarian way of life or the
resources of a region, including its inhabitants, to exploit.
