You don't think the Chinese haven't been using the internet to grab tech secrets from us all along, or we them? This constant spying upon one another is even mentioned in the Bible i believe with Moses, how apropros when he ends up wiping out another tribe that made the mistake of befriending them & offering them help. Another wonderful example of religious genocide in the scritpure but this was the natural order for our species, constant spying, filching, borrowing & stealing from each other. This has been going on forever, always been the driving force, tribes of human beings spying on one another & one only imagines what those primitive hill tribes were thinking when they saw those real blazing Egyptian armies traveling thru the valleys below, horses drawing real chariots in real huge numbers. They then occupy the Levant & Israel for the next 500yrs but of course there was no cultural or religious influence at all...ya right.

As a species, according to this study, we have had more mothers than fathers, and the mothers traveled more than the fathers did. Geneticists tested DNA samples from men living in various cultures around the world and found evidence that, overall, more women than men reproduced—likely because not all men could afford wives and some men had more than one wife. http://www.archaeology.org/news/2543-140924-genetic-mothers-fathers (Photo Courtesy of National Human Genome Research Institute via Wikimedia Commons)

Photos from the wall paintings of the Tomb Chapel of Nebamun, a wealthy Egyptian scribe (c. 1350 BCE). Note how wonderful the art dating so far back, must have been one of the best artists of the time. One doesn't ever get the sense of violence or inordinate cruelty from any Egyptian art, they seemed quite in love with "creation". (yes there is always some) Flutes & pipers & naked girls dancing? That should offend some here....lol The counting of cattle, with scribes recording the numbers. —The surveying of the fields. Offerings are brought to Nebamun and his wife. — at British Museum.Naked ladies dance to music. — at British Museum.Servants bring desert hares as offering. — at British Museum.Nebamun hunting game in the marshes. — at British Museum.
