I’ll go one further, it was the textile age. Thread (and string and rope and sewing) was the huge technological revolution that shaped humanity. That stuffs even more entropic than wood though.

This comes from a story Wade Davis told about an old Inuit hunter guy who killed a dog with a poop knife, skinned it, made a sled from its carcass and a harness from its hide and used another dog to ride into the sunset as a fuck you to his family who were trying to force him to retire.
The story has been thought to be bullshit by a lot of people. Wade Davis is a great writer though.
