Communications in the past & present:

Small piece of light paper containing important message were tied around Pigeon's leg to be carried across long distances. This was a very important means of communication in our world history.

Smoke messages - There were also days when Smoke was used as a medium to convey a message to people in the neighboring towns or villages.

Lighting Beacons - During the days of the kings, Beacons when lit on the hilltops could only mean a warning signal that there could be a possibility of a war.
