Was this kind of behaviour you mention common for the regular people at the time ? My guess is no, at the time, most people we're born into their role, big dreams had little role to play, and competition was on a much smaller scale, so it was easier to be good at something. And it didn't matter as much anyway, because the end result was decided by the gods/fate anyway, not you. And all those charesteristics describe the hunter-gatherer era, the era that supposedly shaped human psychology. But if you look at what happens today, western society is organized around the exact opposites of those things. So it would be weird if we didn't raise questions about that. |
