Eating utensils have been used since the Stone Age of mankind. During this time, eating utensils consisted of simple sharp stones intended for cutting meat and fruit. The Neolithic times brought the rise of technology that improved tools that were needed for production, preparation and eating of food. Some eating utensils were created and first used by our Paleolithic ancestors over 500,000 years ago, while others were introduced only short 1000 years ago during European Middle Ages.Travel to Turkey and Mongolia with me hereCheck out our sister podcast the Mystery of EverythingCoffee Collab With The Lore Lodge COFFEEBonus episodes as well as ad-free episodes on Patreon.Find us on Instagram.

Do not stay ignorant of the world around you: go to https://groundnews.com/historyofeverything and get 40% off the Vantage plan, the same one that I use!At the beginning of the 20th century, an expanding United States wanted a way to expedite naval passage between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. And in 1904, Panama granted the United States the right to build and operate a canal and control five miles of land on either side of the water. But ownership of the region had been a thorny issue for decades as Panamanians were locked out of the prosperity the canal created right in their own front yard, and in 1977 President Carter signed a treaty with Panamanian Chief of Government Omar Torrijos to return the canal area to Panama.Since then, Panama has invested nearly $6 billion to improve the infrastructure and increase the shipping capacity to expand the canal’s use worldwide. The Panama Canal was not an issue in the 2024 election, but in December, President Trump began claiming that the United States, the shipping lane’s biggest user, was “being severely overcharged and not treated fairly” and threatened to “take [the canal] back or something very powerful is going to happen.”Support me on Patreon for extra content. https://www.patreon.com/stakuyi For sources:Make sure to check out my Patreon, I will be posting all sources there for future videos for the publicBUY MY COFFEE IT’S DELICIOUS https://tablowroastingco.com/products/stakuyi-lewis-darkSubscribe to my channels and let me know what more you would like to see.We organize games through discord: https://discord.gg/BJsRA6UpXx Twitch https://twitch.tv/stakuyiPodcast: https://historyofeverythingpodcast.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The French effort to build a sea-level canal through Panama’s mountainous jungle failed due to dangerous, difficult work, insurmountable financial problems, ceaseless rains that triggered mudslides, and corruption and scandal. The French company in charge went bankrupt in 1889, with an estimated 20,000 workers dead. The French had spent $262,000,000 on the project, with little to show. The U.S. later purchased the French company’s equipment and promised to do it differently Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Between the late 19th century and World War II, a flood of “dollar princesses” flocked to England looking for love. In return for a coveted title, they offered their much-needed wealth to an aristocracy desperate for cash.
