Agriculture can inspire deeper thinking about the human relationship. For over two millennia, the lives of man and honeybees have overlapped, each having a profound impact on the other. This book surveys reflection on this relationship from the pre-classical to the modern age. The human bee experience has been primarily social. However, as technology is equally intergal to the nature of man as social construct, we find hard evidence of technology use with bees dating back six to eight thousand years. Part I – Walking the Garden, focuses mainly on the social aspects of the relationship. Part II – Entering the Hive catalogs contemporary technology use in the human hive experience. Many of the experiences chronicled here have contributed to thinking about robotic applications of animal husbandry in apiculture. It is certain that technology in the human-honeybee relationship will continue to evolve in sophistication.
