What time period should I cover next?
200,000 to 500,000 years ago
Early Chalcolithic is one I'd love to see. Humanity leaving the Stone Age is a fascinating, yet woefully underappreciated time in our history.
You should cover the period of Basal Eurasians and how these people are our missing link as Eurasians...
maybe not your thing but cretaceous
Can you please please please make a video about the first Out of Africa expansion when the aboriginal Australians and Sentenilese first left and settled in their respective areas. I want to know about their dna, their haplogroups, the stories from their own traditions.
The landscape, fauna and flora 300,000 yrs ago till 3000 BC is unimaginable and so underrated.... no wonder myth and legends of monsters existed.
I like the way you think, however, I wonder if you remember that Earth has mostly been an ice age world for the past 2.5 million years. Climate instability is the norm for Earth, we now(for 10-12,000years) live in the most stable climate in at least 120,000 years.
@@SamytheGreekwe're in an ice age and an extinction period now, there have been multiple ice ages and cumulatively still not cold as long as its been hot. Research more thoroughly and gleefully.
@@SamytheGreek not for long. we already see it changing. U$ m1litary global lmperialism is the biggest single contributor to emissions and oil consumption btw.
Even in past few centuries...writing and maps...the quote here there be monstors.......show belief of the time....and may hint..that there were monstors....we know so little..and guess so much
@@vyhozshu We can pollute and we can clean up after ourselves and restore but no matter what we do we are headed for the next ice age. We only get 10,000 years of climate stability just as it has been for the last 2.5 million years. We are overdue now, maybe man made global warming has staved off the next ice age of a while but make no mistake, the ice is coming back.
Imagine not being the only developed human species around. This is cool and scary at the same time.
According to 23 and Me, I have a bit of neanderthal in me. So not every encounter was hostile I guess.
They're not different species they're different races. Just like today.
I’m 5.5% Neanderthal ☠️☠️☠️
I think it’s probably because I’m fully scandinavian
Maybe some of us today are not developed as we thought, maybe no one wants to point out cause there will be no reason or not politically correct.
@@MakerInMotionThat doesn't necessarily indicate that the encounter was peaceful/consensual although it certainly doesn't rule out the possibility.
I would love to see a feature film depicting a fictional story about a group of floresiensis based on what life would have been like for them, assuming that it's done well with much research and regard for accuracy.
@@firstnamelastname6193 I think I've heard of that one. Have you ever watched Alpha? That one's good. It's a much more recent setting in Europe but worth a watch. Floresiensis is just such a unique group in such a unique setting I think that would be fascinating.
There is one on Roku or vudu with 'hobbit or hobit' in the name. It stars the actor that played 'Teal' in that sci-fi series with a portal to other planets.
@@mrbaab5932 teal'c
Agree, so long as they don't tack on some dumb political stuff ...eg. 'they got "colonized" by later human species or any other political slant about sexual dimorphism or the lack thereof.
"much research and regard for accuracy." These are fossils. There is no source material nor artifacts nor environment to provide data. Everything is speculation.
These videos are fantastic man. Beats the crap out of stuff on tv
They were probably leading more fulfilling lives back then than we are today. Their own place to live, a family, community, purpose
Yep, until about 35 years
And absolutely no time or energy to concern themselves about anything other than hunt, eat, shelter, fire and water
@@jandrews6254 You mean like sleep, eat, work, work, eat, sleep, die?
Bit of a fallacious thought, that. It's all relative. I doubt any caveman back then wouldn't absolutely murdere for the life of lax luxury we lead even at our poorest. Similarly, because we live in the 21st century even a hundred to two-hundred years ago feels quaint to us and something we think we'd enjoy - probably would for a few days before shit hit the fan, but that doesn't mean it'd be 'fulfilling' in any way other than the fact we'd be experiencing what's the daily toil to another man of that day and age as a bloody vacation.
@@jandrews6254clearly that isn’t true considering art and language and stories developed.
with 21 hours of each other; NORTH 02 and Stefan Milo releases a new vid.. its a great couple days indeed.
my thoughts exactly! and world of paleo anth and gut sick gibbon talking about homo naledi this past week or so has been awesome
Incredibly insightful and interesting! Thank you for sharing!
Love the research, narration, editing!
This is great! :-)
This mans work is everything we all wish the discovery Chanel would be. Cheers.
They used to be good. So was History, Sci Fi and more. I do not know what happened. Reality shows took over. I loathe reality shows. I have my own life.
Your videos have gotten incredibly good over time. I greatly look forward to them each time they drop
I'd like to congratulate you on your Neanderthal video, and I look forward to finishing this one.
The Neanderthal video was phenomenal. 3 hours is not a documentary length I’d usually be ok with, but it was the apex of this already great channel. And this just got 16k views in 6 hours. Well done.
preach bredrens.. my mrs thinks im a nerd but nothing beats pillowtalk like a north02 vid
Ah, your videos always relax me and melt away my worries. I make a coffee, pull up a seat, immerse myself in history and remember that I’m simply insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Yet, i also remember that i’m still special as a cog in society with my own history to create.
Thanks north, I appreciate you brother
Same. Now my son is a fan as well.
Same, except by the time I watch one of his videos I have switched to beer. 🤔🤓🍻
@@Hollylivengood Yes, I too have a son, along with 16 other children I have created. Its cool to have kids, I'm cool, look at me, I have 20 children and theyre all into history and that.
@@Hollylivengood The grift 🎁 that keeps on grifting. From sea to shiny sea.(don't)🌬️🌊
@@BlueBonnie764 That makes zero sense.
Imagine believing the earth is only around 6,000 years old lol 😂
😂
True, but you shouldn't be too antagonistic towards creationists
@MyGrassIsGreenest but they don't even get their own Bible or story correct. On the first day". Is a day the same as we define it now? Is a god day more like a billion years?
When I read theBible, creation myth is oddly accurate. World was indeed made from dust, as was man and all things we see. The earth was once hellish and chaotic, then over time different eras of water and grasses came.
Modern interpretations make no sense to me. They ignore anything that does not fit the narrative. ,
@@MyGrassIsGreenestwhy
Lol 🤣 😆 indeed.
This channel is criminally underrated. Your videos are amazing! Thank you for all that you do!
I heartedly second that emotion!! Bravo 👏👏🏼👏🏾🐵
One of the most amazing things about stone points is the sheer numbers that have been found, it's like many millions in certain areas, they're scattered around like bottle caps after a long music festival.
Thanks for all your hard work man! I love this channel!
Just discovered your channel in the last few days and love it. Well researched, excellently put together and thoroughly enjoyable.
We, humans, are a unique and capable species.
0:20: 🌍 Technological and cultural changes have been happening rapidly in recent years, but historically, innovation was slow and non-existent.
4:33: 🎨 The cave contains ancient artifacts with artistic and symbolic value, including finely made stone and bone tools, and the oldest known drawing.
8:56: 🗿 The Arterian culture, which existed from 150,000 to 20,000 years ago, produced unique Tanked points that were used as tips for throwing Spears or atlatl darts.
13:22: 🧬 The remains found in Croatia suggest Neanderthals had complex societies and engaged in mortuary rituals.
18:09: 🌴 The smallest known hominin species, Homo floresiensis, lived on the Indonesian island of Flores and evolved to be small due to limited resources.
Recap by Tammy AI
Amazing work as always! Grazie del tuo lavoro!!
I just had to say how much I love this channel and every video you have ever put out. Much love and respect and please never stop doing what you're doing, this is far better than anything on TV these days. Well I'm assuming that actually since I haven't turned on a TV since the finale of Game of Thrones...
Thank you for your videos! I get so excited when I see a new one pop up and each one is fascinating and incredibly informative.
The whole time I couldnt stop thinking about how much progress we as a species have made in just the past 5000ish years. It took us how long to start using tools.....and in marginal time we went from huts to skyscrapers, weapons made of rock to sadly nuclear bombs, and things like flight and space travel.
Hopefully we can develop some sort of faster than light space travel before we use up our fossil fuels and other resources
I have such a hard time doing other tasks while paying attention to videos, I was able to listen intently while finishing my work and sitting down to subscribe and finish watching! Great work
Totally enjoyed this! 😊Thanks for Sharing!
That was really well presented. You do the most in depth and unbiased video presentations out of all I have seen on human evolution. I hope you continue to do many more. Than you.
Thanks for the endless quality content
LOVED IT! LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT ONES!! KEEP YOUR GREAT WORK GROWING!!!
Always a treat when that notification comes! I appreciate all your hard work.
Another amazing video of our amazing history , thank you so much !!!
And after thousands of years of throwing stones in a fire, they finally realized sometimes it melts and changes shape. It's amazing that the ability humans have to understand these minute variations led to our advanced age.
Exactly. Reminds me of seeing a world map and seeing the shape of South America and Africa and knowing its not possible to have that much of a coincidence they fit like a puzzle piece. Or how a documentary showed a guy piss and see a seed grow. It’s obvious from the first time you see it! Not 100,000 years! We could have a world culture of peace and share everything but why don’t we? Because it takes time to develop trust and relations and safety to make things happen like having dogs who were wolves who began to trust contact.
I don't think wood fires get hot enough to melt rock, they probably tried to work stones that had been in a fire and realized they were more brittle.
@@itsROMPERS... That's entirely dependent on the wood fire. I mean, copper/tin/bronze/brass all have relatively low melting points, so, long as your able to maintain a consistent fire your able to melt down metal.
@@poop464 I didn't say metal I said rock, and there are no rocks that are just made of these metals such that they'd melt in a fire and change shape and then just solidify.
Bronze and brass are alloys so they don't exist in nature at all.
So no, it's not dependent on the fire.
Heat treating actually just makes a rock break with longer and sharper flakes, no melting. When broke, the rock will have a smoother texture and be more ideal for making tools out of.
I recently found this channel and I have been binge watching,very well done 👍
I always enjoy a North 02 video. Well done sir.
Pre contact human migration throughout the Americas. Which groups remained in one area, which moved, and why (if known) is a subject I would like to hear your analyses of.
New North 02 in the morning? LETS GOOOOOO
Thank you,your presentations are always wonderful.
i really appreciate the way you share this information, you are really aware, open and educated on not only the basic archeological/scientific information but also the spiritual and cultural connections to everything you’re sharing, as a pakana woman (Tasmanian Aboriginal) thank you!! we still use abalone shells today for ochre bowls plus a lot more of our culture is still practised, especially our shell collection and jewellery making from the shells, it’s a very long process of learning and making, i love that you’ve learnt all of this
I absolutely love your vids. They're incredibly well done, informative and educational. I got lost in the one I watched recently about neanderthals. Thank you for what you do. ❤
The fact that I already knew everything you have said in this entiure video, and didnt learn anything new... but still watched it to the end without getting bored, really says a lot about your content and talent as a narrator. Not to mention editing skills. Well done my man
Really appreciate that you updated your videos onto your podcast show with the same name of your RUclips channel
Absolutely the best video on this subject I have seen, thank you
Nice, North. You never fail to stimulate my imagination. I recently read the novel "La Guerre du Feu" by French author J.-H. ROSNY, published in 1909, upon which the amazing film Quest For Fire was based. This takes place 80,000 years ago, which nicely corresponds with your description of human life 100,000 years ago. I highly recommend the book, by the way, but I could only find it in the original French. If you can deal with that fact, it's an amazing read, & as is usual with books that inspired great films, the book itself offers depths & perspectives that even the best movies can never quite capture.
Very informative and up to date. Because of an interest in the evolution of language, I have been trying to learn more about the middle Pleistocene, this is quite helpful.
Your voice is so chill, I really like being able to listen to all of this information without the overacting and background music you get on a lot of channels. I’m excited to watch more.
Love your videos! Thanks so much❤
Super interesting vid! I like to believe that all these different species were friendly with each other 💛
Naive and idealistic, found the liberal incapable of imagining the inhuman brutality that has been our struggle to the apex spot of earth.
incrideble informative and interesting as always!a glimpse into a lost fantastic world of the ancient-past,so rich in diverse great prehistoric beasts and different human-species!
Thank you for all you do. This is very good....I'm grateful your material isn't loaded with overwhelming sweeping music, drums, drama and such.... very subtle and well narrated...
great video I loved the vibe and the flux - and the information of course! So stimulating. Great effort
Woah, what a great video. I have a better overview of our development and that of the Neanderthals and Denisovans in such a short video. I'm going to watch that 3 hour video on the Neanderthals todat for sure. Amazing stuff man, thank you so much
Love your aspect on your work. And the way you put it out there for us to learn.
Your pleasant voice and miraculous depth of info stymies me! Thank you North02❤
Love your work. Thanks
These videos are very interesting, they give a very good explanation of how we lived (and our ancestors) in those times. It impresses me a lot to see how we got to where we are and I have no doubt that if we were transferred to those times, we would not survive, because we are very dependent on the things we have today. Those who lived at that time had it very hard. Your videos are very good.
Hard? Open land and every resource available? Happiness?
Modern world: slavery, no justice, murder, violence, synthetic food. Disease. More diseases! Better genes as the weak die off. We aren’t any different just born with different cultures and more people that has more good but more bad.
Billions of us? no we would not survive, a few pockets of people here and there yeas, but billions no. Humans just came out of a huge ice age just 12,000 years ago, we could not have farmed whole states like Kansas, Iowa etc. the way we do now to feed a large population.
I'll just say it: *Most* (not *all,* don't attack me trolls!) humans alive today would last about 5 days if magically transported to 100,000 years ago. We don't have the stamina to live through the daily challenges that were just accepted as a part of life for humans living (surviving) so many millennia ago. We'd wear out FAST. If, of course, we weren't almost immediately eaten by a large predatory animal because have zero knowledge and woefully underdeveloped instincts when it comes to watching out for something that could eat us. Then out of those who made it past 5 (or so) days, I imagine the majority of those humans would absolutely lose their shit psychologically in a month or 2. Humans today are not conditioned to handle being on guard, in "survival mode" and operating at peek awareness of our surroundings 24/7. Add in the physicality required just to sustain your life 100,000 years ago and yeah, people living today would have a high failure rate. (Failure in this context being literal death.)
@@MeganVictoriaKearns you're underestimating human adaptiveness. When shit hits the fan and our survival instincts wake up from the slumber of a sedentary lifestyle. But yeah low mortality rate of modern society means the people who should've been naturally selected in the wild would die first
I have an idea on the reason for the slow speed of technological advance and its spread in previous eras. There is generally a very small percentage of innovators in the population. With the small populations in the past combined with slow speed of communication this alone can explain why new ideas took so long to spread.
Wow, I love that I stumbled onto this channel. Thank you so much. I love your vid.
I love your videos so much you’re an amazing teacher you can tell that you enjoy going in-depth not to mention your voice is amazingly, relaxing. I love to watch your videos on a Saturday evening after a long weeks work it really relaxes me and helps me to sleep. Thank you so much for these informative videos on human history.
The enunciation deserves praise. There is no doubt that a T is in a word
Usually i just listen to early origin doco's as visually they are not so elaborate as this doco is and with the Neanderthal doco i was just immersed by the info and storyline. Seriously both riveting and relaxing to watch, you have a avid follower for all your further content if they are so well done as the above😎🇦🇺👌👍
Thank you for another excellent video, love your work and efforts
I am enjoying your series. I need to watch so many more of them since this is so interesting to me. Thank-you.
Amazing, thank you for this content. Would be interesting to explore from this point all the way through how our species came to dominate the world eventually (although I assume it's a timeline that's difficult to reconstruct cohesively). Thanks again!
Breeding. We don’t rule anything. We can’t control nature nor every animal in it. We are a parasite trying to survive. Just like everything else.
I came from a region and culture where the land (the world) was not owned by anybody. We were free to move and live wherever we found suitable. Back then, and even now, we never thought of innovation, or technological advancement. As long as we have enough to survive, that's all the matters. We have no written language, but we have one of the beautiful and elaborate singing poetry ever. When I was in high school, one of my teachers mentioned that a lot of Greek myths and stories were told by singing.
Now the land is owned by someone. If it is not owned privately, it belongs to the government. We can no longer move freely. We don't have enough to survive. That is where innovation and technological advancement came into our thoughts. That would have been similar to human anywhere and everywhere.
Amazing video! Great work .
amazing content thank you
Very well produced. When I was shown a cave mouth and told it was in Asia, somehow, I believed it was, and not from some random place. I don't know why, but that makes a difference to me.
It's humbling to see where we came from, and to reflect on the small amount of progress in our species since then.
As an aside, the cave painting at 2:32 shows that men were boastful then, as now! Hyperbole was already a thing 😁 Incidentally, there are three or four human figures in that painting that appear to have dresses on. Can anybody comment on that? I thought people of the time wore fairly close-fitting garments, and their legs were mostly naked. In the picture at 2:37, the guy with the antlers is wearing trousers! I didn't expect the ancients would do that, because of the complexity of making them.
I find it hard to convey to people that the humans of the deep and often lost history were not unintelligent.
"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants." -Isaac Newton
It took a person thinking of how to transmit their thoughts, through symbols that could be interpreted in the future for the idea of writing to begin to spread. And it again took the idea of mass production of thoughts in order for the printing press to revolutionize civilization. It took the idea of networking computers together, to instantly transmit this information in order for something like this video, and billions and trillions of other human creations to be shared with anyone who looks to find it. As fearful and distrustful as we are of each other right now, it is an incredible time to be alive.
always informative and excellent narration
Thank you🎉 Great quality
I can't imagine all the people who died young and unfairly.
what a good video to wake up to!
You are one of my most favorite channels. I really appreciate your work so very interesting
I just wanted to state that, "I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!" I look forward to each video you drop. Good Work & Great Content keep it up. You have a great voice for voice over work... Engaging yet, relaxing
Great video. Every development we make is mainly incremental. It's amazing how we were merely marginal creatures 100K years ago and in the blink of an eye in evolutionary terms are now the apex predators. Will we survive or be a flash in the pan? With nuclear weapons, not unless we can curb our strong tribal and territorial instincts.
I think we will survive for a couple more generations, heck maybe even a few thousand years if we get our crap together soon.
Definitely not until the sun runs out of fuel and dies. Like you said "in the blink of an eye" we rise, we fall. Considering that its funny how significant we think we are.
Cringe doomer loser
I agree with everything you said. Well stated. 😊
Will you do a video on the recent Homo Naledi claims of burial, art and fire usage?
Love your videos!
Excellent! I really look forward to your videos! Thank you.
Now I want a video on what we were doing 50,000 years ago.
Excellent video!😊
To criticize, the most prominent thing about all those skulls, the brow ridge, is given short shift. It should have swiftly brought you to discussion of fists and finger ratios necessary to make one.
Second, the eye size. Sure you could fit the human size eyes into a Neanderthal skull, but you also could fit strikingly larger ones, as demonstrated in the model in that museum in Iran. Then see where the occipital lobe would have been, see how that effects the inside of tarsier skulls, which also lack reflective membranes. What space for the prefrontal cortex would change in Neanderthal eyes is the next question.
You should check out his long form doc on Neanderthals.
@@maybellejohnson4424 Does it say "nocturnal"?
Great content dude!
Another great vid, thank ye ❤
I like that for thousands of years people just listened their grandpa's saying "my father stumped bones with this rock, I did it, your father did it, and you will do it now, and then your children and the children of your children, that's the right thing to do otherwise you're geh"
So I had been thinking of a single idea. We use the term " STONE AGED MAN " a lot. But if one was to really think of the origin of the term, one would come to a idea of time. We use it to represent a time frame before the bronze, and iron ages. But it essentially means those time frames of the old country known as Europe Asia Africa and all in between. The United States of America and Australia could be classified as stone age all of the way up until the first Europeans arrived and brought their technology with them. So is there a term we can use to separate the two ages?
Sure. Smart People and Dumb People. Simple.
Enjoy the content and your narration is very calming. Also nice to dose off with at the end of the day.
Your content and presentation is fantastic!
As you said, asia hasnt been studied as much as europe. Hoping the coming years will reveal more about early humans in asia.
As always, really love your work 👍🏻
If the CCP has anything to do with it you can bet they will find that they invented everything first.
Well for one we now know humans primarily developed in asian and not Africa.
@@theredknight9314
Lmao! That is a lie! I want the source to back your claims!

Someone never heard of the Natufians!
You are using a lot of prehistoric representation paintings made in the 1960's by iconic Czech artist Zdeněk Burian such as @14:02. I remember those paintings from having a small book on ancient humans in the early 1980's and those painting of cavern men absolutely shook my imagination when i probably was 9 years old. I couldn't believe how realistic they looked, the shapes, the air the color it felt like a direct window in time to prehistory. I have never talked to anyone about these paintings since but when i saw them appear in some youtube video's such as yours i now confirm as a very mature adult how amazing they are and it's exactly what wikipedia says : "Burian's artwork played a central role in the development of paleontological reconstruction and he is regarded as one of the most influential palaeoartists of all time...Many of his paintings have reached an iconic status; they were extensively copied by later artists and influenced conceptions of dinosaurs and how they were depicted in popular culture."
I remember literally getting goosebumps as a kid and couldn't stop watching the details of these paintings in the small book i had to a point that i could almost telepathically feel a connection to the mind of the prehistoric men. At that point in time based on your voice you were not even a single biologic cell.
I think these painting add a tremendous value to your video and you are benefiting a lot from them. Almost no other artist has made paleoart that looks so gut wrenching authentic. You include a few other artists but they're never as good, and more like a hollywood movie banner . Burian had that almost dream like vision that looks real to take people back in time inside the frame of the picture. His style i would personally call fractal. In that you could look at a painting be struck by the scene, the notice another scene, then in that scene another interesting detail and as you kept looking always more details kept coming to the point that the detail reached the paintstroke and you are by them part of the scene.
Huh, interesting analysis, I never thought to look closer. Makes me want to put up a wall poster of his work now.
Great work. Thank you.
Well done Sir! Insightful and refreshing
I've genuinely always wondered if at one point where some developed and advanced hominid civilization during the time lapse before the younger dryas and gobekli tepe made by neanderthals, denisovans or some other extinct human group but they faded to oblivion just like gobekli tepe did
Most provably. The fact alone humans could spread around the vastness of earth shows, that the local populations had to be grown big enough to allow them to migrate and settle somewhere else. You can’t found a new settlement across the sea with 5 or 10 people. You’d need at least 200-300 people to sustain genetic diversity, even if they didn’t knew why, they must’ve learnt something about blood lines and why it’s bad to make children with your sisters. So it only sounds logical that they had bigger settlements and cities at convenient places. Maybe even mixed-species communities, as we now know they produced mixed offspring, wich opens the possibility for them not only having contact with each other, but open understanding and language
Look up videos about "The Silurian Hypothesis" It's an interesting idea to ponder.
Great video, I love this subject, and how our understanding keeps improving so quickly.
I was just thinking, I'm not sure why any species would be regarded as "survivalistic". That might paint an incorrect picture, in my opinion.
We are. That’s the issue. They were exactly the same. They can’t see themselves in the mirror. Ego.
thanks for existong north 02. love this channel
First one i have seen. This was very well done in all aspects !
Small clue, the Sphinx in Egypt is 40,000 years old. The story of the tower of Babylon is potentially much older.
There are no credible theories that say that the Sphinx is that old. It is believed to be 4500 years old, with some stating that erosion of the limestone indicates an age twice that. The latter view is contentious.
3:05 You mention "a handful of genetic mutations that spread through the population." Could you outline those genetic mutations that helped create the modern humans?
Yeah, it's not clear to me what the data is on that. Is it just an extrapolation from apparent behavioral changes? Or is there something more solid behind it?
And when are we talking? At 50,000 years ago, it seems implausible. We're out of Africa. Australia's been settled, for example - without a lot of gene flow afterwards. Even at 100,000 years ago, there are genetic divisions between African populations that go deeper than that. Suggesting these mutations spread across the globe relatively quickly without population replacement seems very weird.
There is one that our ability to speak is a mutation, look up FOXP2 combined with N303 and S325
Well done! Keep up the great content
Excellent once again!
The past was always the worst, in most respects...although the future is always unpredictable. Thanks for your hard work, have a great weekend.
I don't know if I agree with you. Yes life was hard in the past but our species did not evolve to live in cities. Overcrowding doesn't equal happiness. Studies seem to indicate that overcrowding leads to depression.
@perceivedvelocity9914 I agree with your point of view, I was thinking more about technology and medical advances. I just had surgery on my sciatic nerve and spine. It was a out patient procedure, I was home that day...30 yrs. ago, that wouldn't be the case.
@@perceivedvelocity9914 Yes but for most of human history medicine was basically non existent , life expectancy was half of what it is today ( or shorter ) and something we consider a minor infection easily treatable with antibiotics today would result in a painful and slow death back then , so i would choose life in a modern city over any kind of life in the past , that's just my opinion. :)
It is my opinion, too. Well said. We must resist the pessimists. They're everywhere.
@@ChIGuY-town22_medicine and compact cities are not mutually exclusive.
Regardless until the development of compact environments, sicknesses and plagues had a harder tike spreading because people were so far apart.
Meaning that most people likely got sick with diseases from poorly prepared food or improper sterilization of tools. But other then that most sickness likely didn’t occur in the vast population meaning that people likely were very happy in the past.
Humans. By the way, I have difficulty communicating because I had a stroke in Broca’s area, the part of the brain that controls speech. 2/8/2021 but I lived again. (My wife helped me compose this.)
Amazing as always
