+# Context
+
+[As I mentioned](/tils/we-created-dogs-and-dogs-created-us), I'm really enjoying the
+[Sapiens](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sapiens:_A_Brief_History_of_Humankind) book. I was shocked to discover that
+hunter gatherer societies were comprised of extremely intelligent humans!
+
+# Reflection
+
+Because of my biases (and probably seeing many depictions of foolish looking cave men), I had
+assumed that what caused the human to "pull themselves out" of the wild animal stage and into
+the industrial age was them finally reaching a point of intelligence to do so. When, [the
+reality](https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240517-the-human-brain-has-been-shrinking-and-no-one-quite-knows-why) is
+actually the opposite! The hunter gatherer people had to be so intimately familiar with their surroundings to survive.
+Weather patterns, migration patterns of many different animals, which foods were safe to eat, and how to prepare the
+foods for consumption. The variety of foods they gathered was also greater than the average person today eating cereal
+grains and one of four different meats. History is so fascinating. I find time and time again, my assumption of how or
+what something must have been is frequently proven completely wrong.
