Community Technology a forgotten tool.
Technology is catalogued as an ancestral resource of the human species, this has always been linked to different ways of building implements and means of communication. Since the Bronze Age or the Iron Age, fire has been attributed with the ability to create utensils and tools to work the land, but going back much further, fire and its conservation was a technology that could be catalogued as communal, since it allowed the proximity of different communities and their members and thus socialize experiences among them.
Fire brought with it technological applications of great impact and relevance, as it was used for pottery, the mastery of metallic materials, cooking food to extend its durability, among others. This technology was undoubtedly a paradigm in which language and communication were strengthened around it, and even collective rules were created to solve problems and thus maintain a stable social organization.
Returning to the present and taking advantage of the fact that COVID-19 has generated a worldwide commotion in the desire to develop a vaccine to control or eradicate this disease, technology is presented as the only alternative capable of reversing this collective problem. Based on this, we have been able to contemplate how technology in a broad digital and non-digital sense has generated a great impact on the world society as it has collaborated with the coverage of relational, affective and community needs.
In conclusion, we could say that community technology is developed in environments of experiences and experiences of each community to solve collective problems and thus be able to improve their capabilities and opportunities to meet their needs. Needs related to communication, comfort, security, transportation, health, make technology more and more part of large collectives or communities for their development.

To many it may seem strange to call technology any advance in which modern methods are not used, but the term itself does not mean that they should be used, since all the knowledge of a technique, whatever it is, applied for a purpose defines the concept. In such a way that man has always used it to advance and the use of fire, the wheel and many new objects through the centuries shows that the human being is naturally technological and that this is always accompanied by teaching others and community work. @tipu curate 2
Greetings @joseph1956, very accurate your comment in this article, not necessarily have to use modern methods to say that there is technological progress, history has shown that man through the ages has managed to generate their own technology in order to meet their own needs.
Thank you for such an important comment.
Greetings friend @carlir. Today we associate technology more with the advancement of digital, but in itself any advance that facilitates a task, improves productivity and benefits the lives of people can be considered a technological advance, so, although perhaps the influence of technology is more marked since the industrial revolution, fire, the wheel and tools like hammers and axes were inventions that helped people and helped to create communities.
Hello dear @emiliomoron, really the vast majority of people associate technological advances with computers, phones and any other digital equipment forgetting the origin of it.
Thank you for your contribution to this publication.

STOPHello friend, excellent topic, as we well know technology is a set of instruments, resources or procedures used to solve a need, speaking of this time I can think that if you do not join it, you are simply left behind.
happy start to the week!
Hello @nahela, very true your contribution if we neglect and we do not go at the pace that technology goes simply this leaves us behind, so you should be as attentive as possible on the actuality of the day to day.
A hug.
Hello dear professor @carlir
"Technology is listed as an ancestral resource of the human species", totally agree since the appearance of man on earth has been in constant technological invention, indeed the great advances have arisen precisely from the interpretations and community experiences. Excellent article.
Best regards, be well.
Greetings @lupafilotaxia, since the appearance of mankind on earth began to produce significant advances in the development of our lives each era has its progress and impact.
Thank you for your comment.
