    The oldest woman in my community is 101. She briefly discribed to me the first time she saw a banana. She saw a classmate peel and eat it. She ran home, and told her mother that her classmate had had a strange type of corn. She had taken off the corn and eaten the cob! Her mother had to explain what a banana was. The food section of the video reminder me of that story.

    I would definitely caution anyone from our era to not underestimate the intellectual speed and capabilities of someone from ancient or mediaeval times. I think that they would shock you with their intelligence. I think that simply the necessities of their day-to-day lives required far more intellectual capability just in order to survive then what our daily lives require of us today. And if they were freed of their Necessities by modern technology I think that you be surprised with how fast the world would have developed just that much earlier in time

      People also fear what they don't understand, though. You had people who lived through the industrial revolution who spent the rest of their lives misunderstanding how electricity worked & what the actual dangers were. I kind of fear getting anyone from the past who was Christian or Muslim into the present, they would be terrified for a time then enthralled for a little bit, but would quickly come to resent & fear everyone & everything, assume you are some kind of Satanic trick plaguing them & become extremely hostile. More ancient Pagans might be more likely to just find stuff that isn't like their own cultures amusing, but it's hard to say. Modern movies would eff them up, as we're all desensitized from it. They told similar kinds of stories, but hearing about something & seeing it are two different things. Remember that movies from pre-1990 that have laughably bad effects don't bother us now, but shocked, awed & terrified people at the time. Imagine jumping an ancient person directly into a modern film with violence or horror or gore.

There’s star charts from 30,000 years ago, so I’m pretty sure if humans could make detailed maps of the stars from Earth’s perspective 30,000 years ago, they had a pretty good understanding 1,000 years ago.

      Highly doubt there are any star charts from 30 000 years ago. There wasn't writing until 5000 years ago, and as you should know from your school experience, chart creation is on a higher skill level than writing.
      Thus if they had the higher skill of chart creation 30k years ago, where is the lower skill of writing from 30k years ago?
      Just because a guy in a white lab coat says that something is from 30k years ago, doesn't mean that it is so.
      It's possible that the rock the star chart is on is from 30k years ago, but that doesn't mean that the engraving is from 30k years ago. The engraving is at best only 5000 years old.

      @array s Pizza is technically just a type of flatbread with some toppings, and that has been around for about 7000 years already, so yes, middle age people would have been familiar with it.
      The type of topping has always varied throughout history, and still does, depending on region, taste and so on. There are tons of pizza variants that don't use tomatoes or cheese. Many use olive oil or some other type of fat, and toppings are stuff like herbs, garlic, olives, fish and so on.

    By describing the machinery off as Automata, it would make explaining much of the world easier to understand. We tend to think they were primitive back then, however in some areas it could be comparable to modern times. It was just a different methodology. The history of Automata opens peoples eyes of what some advancements happened back then and even before that. It's a common belief that the modern age seemed to appear from nowhere but actually it came from a buildup of ideas that were finally put into practice. Ironically some of Davinci's ideas are being used in modern Robotics/Automata today because they work better. Some automata types of practices have been traced back 3000 years to run forges with waterwheels. Some evidence is scarce in between but some does exist. It's likely existed as long as forging has existed but even still gears were made from wheels and wooden pegs so it wasn't entirely necessary.

    I wonder, how many people today are actually able to explain how all this technology works. I'm not talking about professional scientists, engineers, and teachers, but the regular laymen. Most take it for granted and neither care nor know how it works.

      Even professionals today are limited by their area of expertise. There was a time where it was conveivable for one renaissance man to be knowledgeable in art, alchemy, astronomy, mathematics, history, ancient languages, and all other fields of knowledge. In the present, sciences have developed and grown to such an extent that few have the time, passion or intellect to become total experts in more than two areas.

      @@peterp.9327 Im about halfway to being an engineer, and I can describe how much of the tech we use works but only if given the time to do so. To a modern person it is easy to describe what electricity is because we learn about what atoms are when we are 4-6 years old. Try explaining computers fully if you can't even get past electrons.

      @@garret1930 For me theoretically is easy to explain. Practically not so much. And I think the second part is more important, because first part can be regarded as “crazy talk” without actual effect to be seen. My every hypothetical scenario with coming back in time trying to recreate civilization with electricity, always stops with first step, creating electricity.
      I mean I looked few articles on wikipedia about taking wire, taking magnet and start rotating. But then I’m like, how to get magnet. Oh, right, magnet can be created with electricity when … oh right, that’s the thing I want to created.
      But at least when I was looking at it I find out why black outs are such big problem, because electric plant needs electricity to start working. More I look at these things, the less I believe I would be able to do single thing in middle ages without modern technology to to begin with, and more I look how fragile our modern society is, because in many ways we lost ability to recreate it if something went wrong.

      @@stafer3 Magnetite ore exists even if it's both rare and weak. I know of a couple ways to make magnets without electricity:
      - take a lodestone and rub it against a chunk of iron.
      - suspend a hot iron rod vertically and beat the shit out of it with a hammer
      If you think about it, all you need to do is induce the electrons in your material to align their spins, since the presence of a magnetic field will do this for you, you can either rely on the field of other magnets, rely on the field of the earth itself, or rely on the magnetic field generated by electricity passing through a wire.
