Well that was a bunch of gobbledygook I never said. Yes they lived till 70 or 80, provided they lived past 15-18, just like everyone else on the planet at the time. Modern medicine is very good, and much better than natural medicine, but natural medicine predates the entire genus of homo, not just humans. The rest of your fantasy is stuff that I never even alluded to.

I read it by going and talking with the natives that are left, and reading tons of archaeological papers about the areas. Oh yeah, and there's a bunch of documentaries if you prefer videos.
