Show Unchanging Time Today the Arab woman cooks her bread outside the shelter of reed ma!s and mud, which Is her "house," and boils her water over a fire lit In a hole which she scoops out In front of the door. The continuity In the essentials es-sentials of life Is unbroken ; we know that as she cooks now, so did her forebears fore-bears cook 3,500 years ago, and In all likelihood when we come to dig the pre-fiood levels we shall find that the same custo.ns and the same devices 1 go back even farther Into the past. |
