We are always made to think that ancient people were stupid and that in 2020 we are so much more clever than them, but I do not think so.

@revenant oh sure they were. We messed up actually i believe we are learning to do many of the things what they cud do already, but in a sophesticated & quick-easy way. with access of power to even undeserving. Like how people dont know limits of doing/using anything. causing much pain & suffering

@Om2014 You are right and I think increasingly people want to know and do things "right now" and have lost self discipline. Not that I am much better though..

@revenant I think it used to be the case that past societies were regarded in a rather patronising manner as "underdeveloped" and the like, but not so much now.

I never heard of anyone who actually thinks about it, calling even Palaeolithic people "stupid", though. They were as intelligent as we are but did not have the ever-increasing range of accumulated knowledge we now enjoy - it is an important difference.
