Timeline reading “All ties” from the far left until “Invention of scissors, -3000”. Then it’s reading “Rock advantage” until a second marker called “Invention of paper, -179”. The final description from there to the far right reads “Balanced”.

    Paper was invented in China by Cai Lun who died in 121 CE. It’s definitely a lot older than 179 years ago.

      I would argue that last time I checked we arent living in the year 1. In common usage -179 was 2023 - (-179) -1 = 2201 years ago
      (the -1 is because there is no year 0)
