![]() Some of these cultures include Hindus, Buddhists, Christians, Muslims, Jews, First Nations, Aboriginal, and Indigenous Peoples of the world. Many cultures refer to Ancestor Spirits or great celestial Light Beings that brought knowledge to the people. Oral creation stories of original peoples refer to galactic star brothers and sisters. These Star Beings were associated with humankind’s acquisition of specific tools and knowledge.īoosts in the cognitive and creative brain-power of humans resulted in an expansion of their capacity for creative expression in culture, the arts, architecture, applied mathematics, geometry, astrology, and agriculture. They came to Earth from celestial origins. Those stories describe great Beings of Light, gods and goddesses, who were infused with infinite Knowledge and Wisdom. Global indigenous creation stories contribute an additional perspective on the issue of how humans came to acquire knowledge and wisdom. Rajendran is an adjunct professor at the National Institute of Advanced Studies, Bengaluru.) ![]() Bigger brains helped our human ancestors survive in an increasingly unpredictable environment, and enabled them to interact with each other and with their surroundings in new and imaginative ways.” Indeed, there was a rapid increase in brain size some 800,000-200,000 years ago, credited to a time of dramatic climate change. These challenges, along with an increase in body size, led to larger brain sizes. From 2 million to 800,000 years ago, early humans spread around the world, encountering various environments on different continents. In this period, the brain size increased - but only slightly. ![]() "The fossil evidence shows that 6-2 million years ago, early humans began to walk upright and started to make simple tools. Our ancestors faced extinction if they could not successfully adapt to the radically changing climate. That early migration was caused by the life-changing impacts that occurred as a result of the effects of the ice age. Interestingly, evolutionary biologists have determined that the earliest significant and measurable leap in both the size and capacity of the brains of our ancestors occurred during their great migration out of Africa. Anthropologists are seeking answers to the mystery of sudden knowledge acquisition in different species, including humans. It was as if specific knowledge (for example, knowledge about the growing and harvesting of crops) was ‘brought’ to certain cultures at specific points in history in order to assist them in taking a gigantic leap forward in the evolution of consciousness and civilization. Global cultural creation stories, legends and myths consistently speak of great Beings of extraordinary Light, Power, and Knowledge descending to Earth from the sky in vehicles described as boats, canoes, balls of fire, clouds or mist.
