I don't need to tell Kossacks that Western White Christian Male civilization owes a lot to the rest of the world, and to women, but specific facts sometimes help when talking to others. Agriculture is the foundation of civilization, that is to say, of living in cities (civitas), and there is a great deal to human culture that we can trace back hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to Africa. However, I am going to start with writing, the foundation of history, philosophy, science, and so much more.
Writing was invented at least three times, maybe four or even five, worldwide. It was the highest of high tech at the time both in terms of shared knowledge and materials, taking its place alongside shipbuilding, bronze tools and weapons, glass, and irrigation. Writing tools and materials have a long and complex history, starting with clay tokens marked with a stylus, and scratches on bones and other materials.
Let's survey where, when, how, and by whom, and note that no Europeans were involved before the Greeks and Romans, who weren't all that White in the US until quite recently.
