I’m SUPER fascinated with the fact that we evolved to live in a world that is much different than the one we live in today. Id like a peak into the world that we evolved to live in if possible.

I’m looking for answers to questions like these:

  • What was the average day like for a person 10,000 years ago?
  • How long did men and women live 10,000 years ago?
  • How common was fighting and savagery?
  • What were people like 5000 years ago?
  • How have people changed from their origin to now?

Looking for a book that is fact based with historical evidence to back up claims if possible.

Thanks in advanced!
