If I could introduce a material thing to a primitive culture, I would show them a cell phone. The reason why I would show them this is because a cell phone provides a much greater communication system nowadays for everyone. This would save them a lot of time from sending messages through a letter or having to walk long distances or paying for transportation to meet one personally. Also, if someone was in danger, one could call whoever functions as the police in the society right up and get the criminal behind bars. This would also work for the times when there is a fire somewhere and call people to turn it off; and, when someone would be injured, one could call the medics to heal the wounded. Even in times when it is cold and no one wants to walk or stand in the cold to speak, or even when it gets too dark to go out, one can just stay at home warm and safe by speaking on the phone. Or even if they wish to speak to friends and family that have left far away from the area, they still can if they each have a cell phone: and, that way everyone is more free to get out far from the area and still be in contact with their people.
