Well, you
could say a caveman with a fire is also a feedback control
system - Og is cold, so he adds more wood. Og is warm, so he relaxes.
Surely there wre feedback control systems in biological organisms long
before homo sapiens evolved.
Bacterial iron homeostasis comes to mind. Some iron is needed, but not too
much.
