The terrazzo flooring in my apartment is just perfect for seeking out all sorts of obscure and occasionally strange images. I've seen witches, wolves and dog faces in it when I'm idly staring at it. I wonder how people ever put up with plain monotone flooring. Wouldn't trade my floor for other stuff.
A note: A people being ancient does not automagically denote the wisdom that they hold. Just because a people survived from long ago to the present age merely implies that they have much history and have yet to do something that causes them to be wiped out. Moreover, the "wisdom" of the ancients is overemphasized. The ancients have done many bad things to their environment much as modern man has, just as they had strange and wonderous innovations that impress the people of today. As such, people should be vigilant and do their best to maintain that which is beneficial, and make an effort to be aware of the impact they have on the world.
