Technology (from Greek τέχνη, techne, "art, skill, cunning of hand") https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology

Saruman is one of several characters in The Lord of the Rings illustrating the corruption of power; his desire for knowledge and order leads to his fall, and he rejects the chance of redemption when it is offered. The name Saruman [ˈsaruman] (also Curunír) means "man of skill"; he serves as an example of technology and modernity being overthrown by forces more in tune with nature. Saruman is represented by a white hand. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saruman
