Why ancient people like modern people.

A modern person goes back to the past, bringing a lot of different and fresh knowledge and theories, maybe not recognized at the beginning, but once a few things are said, in the ancient people are regarded as prophets, human worship of prophets is manifested as a lack of confidence in the future, so in ancient times fortune tellers were considered to be half-immortals and praised by the world.

So if it were you, would you not like someone who has an absolutely correct vision of your future? Even if a person in history is ultimately a tragic outcome, wouldn't this person prefer someone to remind him at any time, or that it would not be better to travel directly to the present to enjoy life. If you travel through the past and are handsome guys and beautiful women, it won't be tempting.

Therefore, it is absolutely welcome for modern people to go to ancient times.

Scarcity is expensive. All traversals are floating clouds.

Because modern people can predict the future when they go to ancient times.

Who doesn't love something new?

This is because of the needs of the audience.

Imagine if you suddenly see something you've never seen before, especially if this thing has different thoughts, behaviors, and experiences, will you be attracted?

Accustomed to seeing the thoughts of ancient people, the sudden appearance of a modern people's thinking, like standing out from the crowd, must be attractive!

The level of invention and crafts depends on the accumulation of civilization, not simply whether they are smart or not.

You let Einstein grow up in an ancient environment, and if you kill him, he won't be able to solve the theory of relativity.

So judging from the simple inventions and handicrafts, the ancients were smarter than the modern people, where did it come from? What's more, how many of the scientific and technological products in our lives can be made in ancient times?

Quoting one on the web is enough:

According to the evolutionary theory of biology, modern people should be smarter, after all, human society is becoming more and more developed. Although there were many buildings, utensils, and techniques that existed in ancient societies that modern people could not yet understand and imitate, they were mostly inventions of a few talented people.

It's just a few, and on the whole, of course, modern people are smarter. In terms of overall intelligence level, it should be basically the same, because animal evolution is a long process, often calculated in hundreds of thousands of years, in terms of ancient and modern thousands of years, it is really a moment in the long river of history, what changes can be?

In terms of invention and creation, the ancient people were no worse than the current people, but the overall foundation was poor. For example, the structure of a Romance of the Three Kingdoms is comparable to that of a computer program written by many people today.

In ancient times, there were outstanding people, and today there are ordinary people, so if you want to talk about the most basic "smart", that is, the level of IQ, there should be basically no change in ancient and modern times!

1. From the analysis of brain volume: the brain capacity of modern people is greater than that of ancient people, and from a simple physiological point of view, modern people are more intelligent than ancient people!

2. Analysis from knowledge accumulation: The knowledge accumulation of modern people is greater than that of ancient people, so from the analysis of knowledge accumulation and cognitive richness, modern people are smarter than ancient people!

3. Analysis from the perspective of thinking: modern people's thinking tends to think more about problems with their own knowledge or experience, so the limitations of thinking are greater than those of ancient people. Therefore, in terms of thinking, modern people are not necessarily smarter than ancient people.

4. Analysis of the ability of individuals to transform and adapt to nature: The development of modern science and technology has made the ability of human beings to transform the world much stronger than in ancient times. However, the ability of modern individuals to face and transform and adapt to nature has degraded much more than that of ancient people!

Therefore, modern people are not necessarily smarter than ancient people.

5. Analysis from the perspective of cognition: modern people are more accustomed to rational understanding based on knowledge, culture and various experiences; And the ancients were more accustomed to perceptual summaries of the phenomena of things.

So, which is smarter, modern or ancient, I think is relative. Modern man has an aspect of his evolution, and naturally another aspect of his degradation. Moreover, smart is a very vague concept that cannot be absolute.

Just like the United States today. It is leading in science and technology, culture, economy, medicine and other aspects, influencing the world.

Friends, this can only be said that technology was not developed in the past, and people's lives were simpler!

Neither the air nor the water is polluted.

For example, in the Tang Dynasty, plump and mellow are beautiful, while modern aesthetics are more inclined to be white and thin. Beauty is different in everyone's eyes, like beauty in the eyes of some people, in the eyes of others, it is very general, and the ancient definition of beauty is not all about the face, there are also factors of virtue in it.

The aesthetics of the Chinese are divided into four levels, in the shape of a pyramid, and the lowest level is gaudy, that is, relatively superficial beauty, simple and direct, popular things, with the broadest mass base.

The upper layer is implicit, such as Tang and Song poems, which need to be experienced, and it is more difficult to understand directly. The third level is hypocrisy, such as works of art, each with its own understanding, a thousand readers and a thousand Hamlets.

The top-level and highest-level aesthetic is pathological, of course, some extreme aesthetic beauty is also easy to transform into the most common aesthetics in a specific era, such as women's morbid beauty, which gives people a delicate feeling and arouses people's desire to protect.
