We must read the history of the present moment backward, that is, in the opposite sense, 
although a dose of “desantropomorphization” is always important, that is, to attribute the whole foundation of the concepts studied to man alone, without considering his surroundings; with this the use of technology for its handling.
This means that man is what he does with nature and with his fellows around him, the important relation to the Other that the current philosophy emphasizes.
Taking a leap into history, returning to 7,000 BC, we find the Stonehenge monument in central England, and recently (in the 1990s) a cave was found with paintings dating to 30,000 BC, the Chauvet Cave.
Several studies of archeology, Stonehenge is more advanced, point two interesting facts: the technological importance, the stones of Stonehenge were moved by England from Wales, and the religious aspect: it is known that that circle is part of larger circles of Where several inhabitants came for some sort of “religious” rite.
The second discovery is more intriguing, a true art gallery was found in Chauvet, showing an already refined technique of painting and what Werner Herzog called “homo spiritualis” in his film “The Cave of Forgotten Dreams“, the only film allowed Until today of this gallery of prehistoric art.
It is important to know that both English researchers and archaeologists who research Stonehenge (see our post) and Werner Herzog who filmed Chauvet are not religious people, but the realization that there was something “spiritual” on both monuments makes us think.
Man has always lived immersed in a spiritual sphere, which Teilhard Chardin called the Noosphere and used technology, so the anthropomorphic principle is false, we are nature.
