Standardization of Ancient Civilization 4. Proto-Industrial Thinking  Part 01: (25 minutes discussion) 1. History of Pre Industrial Societies Eras and Periods 2. Evolution of Tools and Items history: PRE-iNDUSTRIAL SOCIETY The pre-industrial society, dating from around the mid- 18th to early 19th century, served as the era preceding the Industrial Revolution, marking the transition to industrialization and its global impact on economies and societies. eras & periods in pre-Industrial Society Paleolithic Era- Hunter and gatherer, use simple tools like flint tools. People in many gatherer-hunter societies devote remarkably little time to meeting their subsistence needs. eras & periods in pre-Industrial Society Paleolithic Era- Hunter and gatherer & use simple tools like flint tools. Delicate leaf shapes are not produced simply for the pleasure of it, but because they have proved to be efficient in use. eras & periods in pre-Industrial Society Neolithic Era- marked by the development of agriculture & settled communities. Pastoralism (herding of animals) and Agricultural Revolution that motivated people to become sedentary agriculturist. eras & periods in pre-Industrial Society Bronze & Iron Age - advancement in metalworking & trade networks began to emerge, laying the foundation for more complex tools and weapons that were essential for pre-industrial societies' economic and military development. eras & periods in pre-Industrial Society Medieval Period - broader category of Pre-industrial societies that brought technological advancements & changes in social structure. Relied on the ff.: Agrarian Reform Manual Labor Traditional Craftmanship Feudalism and Manorialism evolution of tools and objects Delves into the significance of tools, emphasizing their functionality and the understanding of material properties. It underscores the adaptability of tools to various tasks, laying the foundation for early FLINT STONE (over industrial design principles. 500,000 years ago) evolution of tools and objects Wrought-iron rush holders Ancient Wooden Torch Standardization in Ancient Civilizations Explores the theme of standardization in ancient civilizations such as the Greeks and Romans, particularly in the realms of pottery and weaponry. Decorations appeared on a standardized range of shapes, each with its own specialized purpose. RED FIGURE AND BLACK FIGURE POTTERY Standardization in Ancient Civilizations The Romans had a large output of fine red mould- made pottery imitating metalwork. The moulds are not thrown to make use of it in many times not merely similar but identical. Standardization in Ancient Civilizations Artisans/designer excelled in devising plain but practical forms with just enough ornamental detail to prevent dullness. A set of copper cooking utensils from the kitchen of the first Duke of Wellington that is plain and practical in form. Standardization in Ancient Civilizations Handicraft was used where it was necessary, not simply for the sake of doing it. The English teapot from around 1670, made of silver, demonstrates a straightforward use of the material. Similarly, a kettle on a stand from 1710-20 is mostly simple, with the only hint of fancy design being the curved cast feet on the stand. Proto-Industrial Thinking in Medieval Ages People started thinking about industry in a more organized way. They got really good at making things like tiles and pottery in a standard, efficient manner. They also figured out smart ways to mass-produce items using casting processes. Proto-Industrial Thinking in Medieval Ages Proto-Industrial Thinking in Medieval Ages The George II walnut commode is basically a plain rectangular box. But its rectangularity is relieved both by the waist moulding under the top drawer and by the bracket feet- especially important visually as they link the chest firmly to the ground, without making it seem heavy. Proto-Industrial Thinking in Medieval Ages 18th-century concern with visual style led to the issue of numerous pattern-books for the guidance of furniture-makers and their patrons.
