I think a better contribution to the discussion would be more details or a better source. https://hms.harvard.edu/news/exploring-science-acupuncture They found a mapping of neurons that match with how acupuncture determines location, intensity, depth of the needle. Leading to specific neurological firing enabling reduction in inflammation. Many in our society look at the ancients as stupid because they worshipped gods or spirits. Constantly we’re finding what they discovered and said has evidence according to our “god” of science. I think throwing away their wisdom is a mistake, we should look at many of their practices like the pyramids, trying to find what they may have seen that we do not. Not throwing it to the wayside because it’s “woo-woo” |

It’s common for old ideas to be associated with accurate information without actually being true. The classical elements Earth, Air, Fire, and Water might map to ice, water, steam, and plasma but they don’t explain the fundamental nature and complexity of all mater.
So no it’s not that the wisdom of the ancients it’s simply an observation by people like us that didn’t actually understand much about how things actually worked. The pyramids are shaped that way because it’s a straightforward way to build something very tall from stones. The complicated bits are all inside, and not that interesting.
