1-Lascaux ~17000 BCE

(English /læsˈkoʊ/, French: [lasko]) is the setting of a complex of caves in southwestern France famous for its Paleolithic cave paintings. The original caves are located near the village of Montignac, in the department of Dordogne. They contain some of the best-known Upper Paleolithic art. These paintings are estimated to be 17,300 years old. They primarily consist of images of large animals, most of which are known from fossil evidence to have lived in the area at the time. In 1979, Lascaux was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites list along with other prehistoric sites in the Vézère valley

2-Alphabet ~5000 BCE

The Alphabet is derived from Cuneiform & Phoenician scripts (or non alphabetical). An alphabet is a standard set of letters (basic written symbols or graphemes) which is used to write one or more languages based on the general principle that the letters represent phonemes (basic significant sounds) of the spoken language. This is in contrast to other types of writing systems, such as syllabaries (in which each character represents a syllable) & logographies (in which each character represents a word, morpheme, or semantic unit).
These scripts were the first phonemic scripts & were the ancestors of modern alphabets, including Arabic, Greek, Latin, Cyrillic & Hebrew.

3-Torah ~1500 BCE

The Torah is Judaism's most important text, also embraced by Muslims & Christians. Composed of the Five Books of Moses, it also contains the 613 commandments (mitzvot)including the Ten Commandments. The word "Torah" means "to teach." Traditionally a Torah is written on a scroll that is then wound around two wooden poles, called a "Sefer Torah" & it is handwritten by a scribe who must copy the text perfectly. When in modern printed form, the Torah is usually called a "Chumash," which comes from the Hebrew word for the number "five."

4-Printing 1450 CE

The world's first known movable type printing technology was invented & developed in China by the Han Chinese printer Bi Sheng between the years 1041 & 1048. In Korea, the movable metal type printing technique was invented in the early thirteenth century during the Goryeo Dynasty. However, the Goryeo Dynasty of Korea printed Jikgi by using the similar method about 72 years earlier than Gutenberg & Jikgi is the world's first press-printing material that is existant. In the West, the invention of an improved movable type mechanical printing technology in Europe is credited to the German printer Johannes Gutenberg in 1450. The exact date of Gutenberg's press is debated based on existing screw presses. Gutenberg, a goldsmith by profession, developed a printing system by both adapting existing technologies & making inventions of his own

5-Telephone 1876

Alexander Graham Bell was an eminent scientist, inventor, engineer & innovator who is credited with inventing the first practical telephone. Bell's father, grandfather, & brother had all been associated with work on elocution & speech, both mother & wife were deaf, profoundly influencing Bell's life's work. His research on hearing & speech further led him to experiment with hearing devices which eventually culminated in Bell being awarded the first US patent for the telephone in 1876. In retrospect, Bell considered his most famous invention an intrusion on his real work as a scientist & refused to have a telephone in his study.

6-Internet 1989

The European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN - Established in 1954, is a European research organization whose purpose is to operate the world's largest particle physics laboratory. The World Wide Web began as a CERN project called ENQUIRE, initiated by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989 & Robert Cailliau in 1990. Berners-Lee & Cailliau were jointly honoured by the Association for Computing Machinery in 1995 for their contributions to the development of the World Wide Web. Based on the concept of hypertext, the project was aimed at facilitating sharing information among researchers. The first website went on-line in 1991. On 30 April 1993, CERN announced that the World Wide Web would be free to anyone. The original first webpage, created by Berners-Lee, is still published on the World Wide Web Consortium's website.
