The process of mimicking properties of specific interest (such as mechanical, optical, and structural) observed in ancient and historical systems is designated here as paleo-inspiration. For instance, recovery in archaeology or paleontology identifies materials that are a posteriori extremely resilient to alteration. All the more encouraging is that many ancient materials were synthesized in soft chemical ways, often using low-energy resources and sometimes rudimentary manufacturing equipment. In this Minireview, ancient systems are presented as a source of inspiration for innovative material design in the Anthropocene.
在本文中，模仿在古代和历史系统中观察到的特定感兴趣特性（如机械、光学和结构特性）的过程被称为古启发法。例如，考古学或古生物学中的复原发现了一些材料，这些材料事后证明对变化具有极强的复原力。更令人鼓舞的是，许多古代材料是以软化学方式合成的，通常使用低能量资源，有时还使用简陋的制造设备。在这篇小型综述中，古代系统被视为人类世创新材料设计的灵感来源。
