Abracadabra… ��� Map it!���: “at memory from this basic and survival point of view, we quickly realise that memory is not just a matter of recalling shopping lists and information for exams – it is literally a matter of life and death. It is for this reason that all cultures throughout history have devoted large amounts of their time and energy to making sure that there �memory systems� were both excellent and improving.

From simple color-codings and marks on rocks, to rhymes that helped people remember the location of things that were important, the memory systems of planet Earth grew.”
