Frickn white dudes, probly. I once saw an article by a Native American that read like: "We lived with the land, hunted during day, and had sex at night. Only White Man would think he could improve on that."
Careful with the noble savage fallacy. Europe was constantly ravaged by disease due to animal domestication, in ways the Americas were not. Many Native American civilizations created insane mathematical, ecological, and civil wonders during their existences. They 100% would have used double-blind studies if they had any major reason to advance medicine prior to Europeans bringing plagues.
You mean like permaculture and irrigation? Yeah, that stuff was dope. Should I have put '/s' at the end of my comment to make it clear that, whilst true, I wasn't defending a position?
