What is the oldest expertise that's been passed down from person to person? Is there a chain for flint-knapping for example?
Do you think it beats walking though? That's the best answer I've seen so far on this thread.

How about Language skills. Walking would be natural, would not need to be taught I think.

Walking surely would be discovered by any human even if isolated from teaching.

I think you can reformulate the question to two variables: whats the most impressive expertise passed down the longest?
