Comment on Do our human accomplishments have a long-term, universal significance, or when the world ends, do we all end with it, including what we’ve achieved?

Depends on your definition of “long-term”. The biggest accomplishments of Man have been acknowledged for maybe 10,000 years at the very extreme limits. 10,000 years is not even a drop in the bucket of geological or celestial time. So it very much depends on your perspective.

What happened 11,000 years ago? I mean, we’ve got some pottery fragments. Other than that, ???

    … Ok, fair. 11,000 years was the wrong cut-off date. 12 - 13,000 years would have illustrated my point better.

    A movie, it’s titled 10000bc. You should check the wikipedia article. There isn’t huge events, more plenty of average ones, like the start of pottery.
