Has anyone else wondered about hunter-gatherers, our ancestors, lives and wondered if they were brutish, short and hard or if they were fairly prosperous? This has been on my mind for a long time now and I am finally diving in and doing the research and learning as much as I can about it. I am hoping to push out an essay sometime soon about this.
pretty sure that hunter-gatherers worked less and lived far less stressful lives than civilized humans, but that applies even to peasants which were most humans up to the modern era.

You would be surprised how little farmers and peasants gained vs how much they lost up until fairly recently when things improved.
