News and Information

Monumental Team Building

23/6/2020

I've long been fascinated with mystery, devouring new theories on historical anomalies such as the disappearing cultures, evidence of historic events and the building of ancient monuments. There are as many theories as to how ancient sites such as Stongehenge were built, and are there are on theories of why they were built, but this morning I discovered an interesting new one at New Scientist.

The benefits of team building have long been known, promoting cooperation, integration and improving relations between strangers and colleagues, but could team building have been a main purpose of historic monument building?

Research has shown that historic monuments have largely been built during times of stress and upheaval, and have been completed in empires with a wide variety of societal structure, including those with no clear leadership. Historical knowledge and archaelogical research  have led researchers to the surprising conclusion that many famous ancient structures were built by teams involving thousands of volunteers, often coming from different regions and ethnic groups.  This revelation has sparked new debate, as to whether team building  could have been one of the primary reasons for our ancient monuments, or whether the benefits were a lucky side effect which has helped to create and stabilise human society during times of turmoil.

Either way, it seems as though team building was a 'thing; much earlier than we realised, and it's probably something we should all consider doing more of.

I wonder if, in times such as these, it's time to fix a divided society by bringing them together to build some new monuments?
