for example: if you were to kidnap a prehistoric human baby and give it an education, would it be as smart as a regular human?
In: Biology
“Prehistoric” is a pretty big category. . H. Sapiens sapiens…yes, certainly back to 50,000 ya and plausibly to 150,000 ya. Some might actually be smarter, brain size has decreased a bit from the maximum. Neanderthals…maybe? A lot of anthropologists would love to know the answer to that one. H. erectus? no way.
