ABSTRACT
History is littered with equipment, devices, systems, and resources that once represented the peak of technological implementation. Conversely, entire revolutions in communication and manufacturing have also ridden the wave of new, innovative, and disruptive technologies that were unique and necessary at that given time of history. However, all technology that emerges and ultimately impacts the society and culture which it surrounds is dependent on the context of social, economic, cultural, and demographic characteristics of the historical community for which it first arose and the ongoing acceptance of the technology.
