    Go to very deep cave. Then write down “资本主义每一次都会导致法西斯主义”

    Born back then so no idea of the future probably? Fire was invented like a million years before or around that, so I’m probably cooking food. I like cooking the food. Dying during childbirth??

      Probably also my fate. Cooking the food, dying during childbirth. Would be blissfully unaware of what a stock market is. Upsides, downsides.

    Vaguely remember that fire can be made by rubbing two sticks together.

    Try to make fire.

    Fail.

    Get kicked out of tribe for wasting time with sticks instead of helping with the hunt.

    Main question is do I have modern knowledge or not?

    If yes - then apply everything I know from primitive technology and education. Will try to reach some level of progress, probably will be able to get to steam machines and telegraph in one lifetime.

    If no - then will be just strolling with everyone and enjoying nature as usual.

        Having access to the raw materials is the hard part, depending on where you are. If the place your or any other tribes migrates around lacks the raw rocks, you’re shit outta luck.

        Copper and tin are relatively easy to work, as you can melt the metal into an earthen or sand mold. A furnace that can melt it isn’t too hard to create. From that to a steam engine isn’t that big of a jump, the Greeks figured that out but never thought about making it do labor.

        Another hurdle is surviving long enough, as you wouldn’t have access to sanitation or medicine.

    Look around for some andesite, granite, or flint, and copper. Use those to make tools. Instantly get promoted to the top of the human monkey group because I “know magic” of fire and stone. I’m an apprentice smith.

    Probably spend the rest of my life making one of those Roman 12 sided smithing test things that historians can’t figure out what it is.

    Punch a tree until it falls. Make an axe out of wood. Use it to chop more trees down. Find shelter for the night. Build a crafting table. Wait until sunrise. Run around until I find sheep. Kill them for wool. Make a bed.

    Go with the gatherers, fuck the hunters, it better be someone else who ends up eaten by Saber-Toothed Tigers.
