Ancient and modern technology

I found it interesting to see the juxtaposition of the bee-hive houses in Harran, Turkey, where the archaeological tradition dates back at least 3000 years, with the modern solar water heater and the plastic coverings on the ventilation openings on top of some of the huts. Also the flat-roofed stone and mud building in the foreground (Neolithic technology) had a roof of corrugated steel or aluminum (20th C technology).
