Probably the migratory patterns were as import at as any other reason to travel. What I seem to be noticing is that the ancients used calculus all the time but it was the geometric tools that they used. This gave technology a form. Arabic numerals made tabular data more useful leading to the more number based tools. This seems to have removed the form from technology.
