A few years ago I put together a cross-cultural ‘History of Design’ timeline covering art and architecture from prehistoric times to the beginning of the twenty-first century. The above table from this History of Design shows where the first of six cross-cultural ‘time capsules’ I have illustrated fits into the big picture.

The pre-Incan Temple of the Crossed Hands, in Kotosh, Peru, is the oldest archaeological structure in the Andes. Stone constructions suggest that complicated building work began here in the third Millennium BCE centuries before anywhere else in the Americas.
