Did animals teach us one of the oldest forms of human technology? Did this technology contribute to our ability to count? These are just two of the themes due to be explored at a conference on basketry at the University of East Anglia. The event, which recently took place, is part of Beyond the Basket, a major new research project led by the university exploring the development and use of basketry in human culture over 10,000 years.    (source: sciencedaily.com)
