observe, memorize, build

Humans observe patterns of nature and then use that knowledge to regulate our lives. Before writing, we built structures such as Stonehenge with precise astronomical alignments. The data necessary for such alignments would need to be collected across multiple generations, but writing, to our knowledge, did not exist at that time. This implies an oral tradition of astronomical knowledge.
