Reptile+bird+human, did these ancient people have a concept of evolution?

[-] cabbage@piefed.social 8 points 21 hours ago

As far as I've understood, a lot of nature religions do go a long way in recognising our common origins. Not as evolution as such, but more because we're all parts of a common body somehow. In that sense they might have been closer to getting it right than messianic religions. Not that it takes all that much.

Learning about the belief systems of indigenous people in Latin America is incredibly interesting. There's a lot of underexplored ancient philosophy in there, and it is still being kept alive through oral traditions often in increasingly small communities.

I'm into mythologies, because imo, they chronical the evolution of our intellectual - and by extension, psychological - development. I've noticed on YouTube that videos of other regions' mythos are more prolific than the global south, and guess colonization may have influenced the information we have.

It may be pareidolia, but it's fascinating to me how ancient symbols mimic modern scientific findings, for instance Moses '/Hermes' staff and the Norse rune inguz, mimicking the DNA double helix. At any rate, it's fun to ponder.
