Thanks for the great article!
Well, technically not all ancient technologies were sustianable – some of these examples are still in use, but many more have become ruin after a short period of use.
The thing we have now, that they didn’t use on the same scale, is fossil fuels and plastics. We’ve used these to create some amazing technologies – but will we be able to keep them after we use up our legacy fuels?

We may have reached a magical threshold where our technology can run on little enough energy that we can preserve it this time. Or we may be heading into yet another “dark ages,” when things fall apart.

I prefer to remember traditional tricks of the trades, just in case we need them again.

@Tom
Totally right what you said. Al Gore the whore preaching his marketing pitch that most refer to as ‘global warming’.

I wonder when we will have a green tax / carbon tax imposed on us. It should be industry leaders who makes the changes to combat so called global warming, and not the little people – the end user.

Finally, the Cliff Palace in Mesa Verde looks like an awesome place to have lived.
