The current recommendation is in this region, yes. The bare minimum is 0.8g per kg. But that is survival mode.

I am generally not a huge fan of the historical line of thinking. 6 generations ago you died significantly earlier with not a great health along the way. It is a very recent development to live to (avg) 83. Would the strongest man in your region perform at a high level if he wasn't doing manual labour and died at 95?
