In: 121

Answer 1

It did make it, medieval people didn’t lost ancient knowledge, they were even heavilly dependent on it, ancient greek and roman texts were copied in mass at this time, and hopefully, because the originals are lost to us.

there are many periods of time in the middle ages, and technology thrived really thrived since the 12th century, which is the begining of industrialization due to the use of watermills.

However, it is us who lost the knowledge of medieval people.
