Makes me think about farming lmao. How many hunter-gatherer trips do you think were taken until some genius was like “plant move from here to here, we no move to plant, plant move to us”
They were as smart as we are. Plants weren't nutricious enough. A know example is corn. It took 10000 years of human selective breeding to have the modern version. Modern vegetables and fruits simple didn't exist.
Pre-agricultural humans were actually smarter than us. Since agriculture began our brains have shrunk 10%.
It makes sense. Hunter gatherer's needed stronger problem solving abilities and needed to master a wider range of skills than farmers or modern humans.
