Talk:Early human history

"Early"? Not so much
I've never heard "early" human history described as "all that happened before the 15th century". Early human history is that which happened, y'know, e-a-r-l-y. Prior to the invention of writing. Before the ancient civilizations developed. To call the 14th century "early human history" is stretching things, just a tad. I know the classifications are somewhat arbitrary, but this article should be broken down along generally agreed time periods, as described by Wikipedia's human history article or a comparable source. Or, we could take the quick-and-dirty approach of renaming it to "Human history prior to the Renaissance" or somesuch. But leaving things as they are makes us look rather uninformed about history. Which is kind of ironic, given that Doctor Who ' s original mandate was to teach people about history.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍  00:35, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
