古代的人聪明还是现代人聪明?

原文:

从生物学的角度来讲,几千年对于人类智慧进化的影响应该时微乎其微的,所以单纯从智商而言现代人并不比古人更有优势,但古代人受制于时代,他们没有机会用科学知识结合自己的智慧改造世界,更多时候只是缓慢地积累农业、手工业、以及小农经济的经验。

如果你看过考古类节目,就会看到所谓“传统工艺早已失传”等描述,这倒确实是事实,但下面很多评论感慨现代人不比古人聪明,哀叹老祖宗的好东西没人继承。实际上,很多工艺的失传,只是因为现代重现的价值不高,如果可以工业化大规模生产化纤制衣,谁又会折腾费时费力的人力纺纱呢?

古人积累了很多天文学经验,但可惜没能总结出一套科学的规律,最终止步于观测记录,连日心说都没有提出。古人积累了很多草药学知识,但从未真正认识到人体内部运转的机理,即使古代战争、饥荒尸横遍野,都没有诞生解剖学家,还得西方的医学生偷窃目的的死尸才完成人体的绘图,弗莱明发现的微量抗生素反而迅速普及并拯救了亿万人的生命,而现在中医还在研究那些根本不存在的“器官”。古人积累了很多农业经验,倒是为世界贡献了不少优良品种,但可惜古代中国连自己人喂不饱,而在现代科学的加持下现代科学不到一百年就解决了粮食产量的问题(当然分配是另一个问题)。

当然了,站在时代的潮头当然可以这样说,古人在他们所处的时代也做出了当时最好的选择与最大的努力,我并无意贬低古人,只是觉得那些盲目吹捧“古”的人被现代科技喂的太饱,拜错了庙而已

而且大部分原因他们所处历史时代的局限,怪不得任何人。不过,也有一部分原因是可以归结到老祖宗那的,就是当西方科技已经显著领先中华的19世纪,老祖宗们依然认为自己最有智慧,千百年年来积累的经验被工业革命后的炮火付之一炬。



译文:

From a biological perspective, the impact of thousands of years on the evolution of human intelligence should be minimal. Therefore, in terms of intelligence alone, modern humans are not more advantageous than ancient humans. However, ancient humans were constrained by the times and did not have the opportunity to combine scientific knowledge with their own wisdom to transform the world. More often than not, they only slowly accumulated experience in agriculture, handicrafts, and small-scale farming economies. If you have watched archaeological programs, you will see descriptions such as "traditional craftsmanship has long been lost", which is indeed true. However, many comments below lament that modern people are not smarter than ancient people, and lament that the good things of our ancestors have not been inherited. In fact, many lost processes are simply due to the low value of modern reproduction. If we could industrialize the large-scale production of chemical fiber clothing, who would bother with time-consuming and laborious manual spinning? The ancients accumulated a lot of astronomical experience, but unfortunately, they were unable to summarize a set of scientific rules, and ultimately stopped at observation records, without even proposing the heliocentric theory. The ancients accumulated a lot of knowledge in herbal medicine, but never truly understood the mechanism of the internal operation of the human body. Even in ancient times, wars, famines, and corpses were rampant, and no anatomists were born. Western medical students had to steal dead bodies for the purpose of drawing the human body. The trace antibiotics discovered by Fleming quickly popularized and saved the lives of billions of people, and now traditional Chinese medicine is still studying "organs" that do not exist at all. The ancients accumulated a lot of agricultural experience and contributed many excellent varieties to the world, but unfortunately, ancient China could not even feed its own people enough. With the support of modern science, the problem of grain production was solved in less than a hundred years (of course, distribution is another issue). Of course, standing at the forefront of the times, it can be said that the ancients made the best choices and made the greatest efforts in their time. I have no intention of belittling the ancients, but I just feel that those who blindly promote "ancient" were fed too much by modern technology and worshipped the wrong temple. Most of the reason is due to the limitations of their historical era, no one can be blamed. However, there is also a part of the reason that can be attributed to our ancestors, which is that even in the 19th century when Western technology had significantly advanced in China, our ancestors still believed that they were the most intelligent, and the experience accumulated over thousands of years was burned by the artillery fire after the Industrial Revolution.
