Years ago, the anthropologist Margaret Mead was as $Years ago, the anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about clay pots, tools for hunting, grinding-stones, or religious artifacts.⁠ ⁠ But no. Mead said that the first evidence of civilization was a 15,000 years old fractured femur found in an archaeological site. A femur is the longest bone in the body, linking hip to knee. In societies without the benefits of modern medicine, it takes about six weeks of rest for a fractured femur to heal. This particular bone had been broken and had healed.⁠ ⁠ Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die. You cannot run from danger, you cannot drink or hunt for food. Wounded in this way, you are meat for your predators. No creature survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal. You are eaten first.⁠ ⁠ A broken femur that has healed is evidence that another person has taken time to stay with the fallen, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended them through recovery. A healed femur indicates that someone has helped a fellow human, rather than abandoning them to save their own life.⁠ ⁠ Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said.⁠ ⁠ We are at our best when we serve others.⁠ ⁠ Words: Remy Blumenfeld⁠ Source: Forbes.com⁠ ⁠ #heresto2022 #workingtogether #wid #widnews #margaretmead #inspiration #helpothers #community$
