Toxic relationships

When one of the students asked the archaeologist Margaret Mead what she considered the first evidence of civilization in human history, the student expected the answer to be: clay dishes or carved stones, or even a fishing rod. But the professor replied: The first sign of civilization in ancient civilizations was a broken thigh bone that healed. The students were surprised by her answer, and asked her to clarify, so she replied: In the animal kingdom, if an animal's leg breaks, it is tied; it cannot escape danger, reach water to drink, or hunt. An animal with a broken leg cannot survive long enough for the leg to heal, but the presence of a healed thigh bone after a break is evidence that someone stayed with the injured person; tied his leg, carried him to a safe place, fed him, gave him water, and cared for him until he recovered. Helping someone in difficult times is the starting point of civilization… In social relationships, the feeling of human safety precedes everything.
