Connecting the dots as we say is the best way to paint a picture of history. Creating a timeline with the type of individuals living in that time period begins to formulate what life was like during that period. Being able to show from where we came from to where we are going gives humans a grounding in self-identification. Progression and development are what have made the large contribution to shaping our future. This self-identification allows for a person or people relate to one another and the way we interact with one another.
