Knowledge that would be gained by way of inventions and discoveries and by the growth of the ideas of government, of family, and property. Morgan demarcated this evolution of culture into three eras; savagery being the bottom, barbarism being the middle, and civilization being the top and what man would strive for. Taking it even further those stages were then divided by technological inventions including, use of fire, pottery, and weapons in the savage era, horticulture, domestication and cultivation in the barbarism era, and finally the alphabet, writing, and architecture in civilization thus showing a correlation between social progress and technological progress. Morgan viewed this technological progress as the single driving force behind social progress, and believed that any social change has their beginning in the change of

Technology may not seem like it made a huge impact on Western Expansion, but it in fact did. Without the creation and development of railroads, canals and bridges, expansion would have progressed a lot slower and not nearly as efficiently. Railroads allowed farmers to trade crops into the valley and passed the Appalachian’s which were previously off limits due to distance and terrain.
