Science and Technology aren't all that new, nor are they inherently inseparable. Science is used in the making of Alchemical potions and researching of just about anything. Heck, science could be said to be involved in reading the Elder Scrolls, if one chose to define it correctly (either the process for reading to the word science). Technology, in this case, however, is the items. And the Dwemer have been around for a long time. They were recorded in the First Era, after all. They vanised in the 1E700, granted that is out of 2960 years, but 700 is a long time. And we have known about them for every second of their planar existence and ever since their vanishing.
