Seriously, where did people get this idea? Even if it happened sometimes, it doesn't necessarily mean it was the norm or that everybody accepted it during the entire period those civilizations existed or that there weren't people who hated it.
What is the evidence for this?
And no, HBO Spartacus doesn't count.

listen I'm just saying it's a bit suspicious that all these societies perceived as scientifically advanced are also thought to have practices pedastry. even Leonardo da Vinci apparently diddled some kids.

because pedophilia is natural, and if it wasn't for authoritarian moralfags suppressing natural urges we would be in space by now

Not true
For example : Papuans
They practice pederasty, make boys drink their semen as a rite into adulthood, and in general a ton of weird shit
A lot of tribal societies do this and, well, I wouldn't consider them great. (inb4 that's racist, seriously how are those people great ?)
There also were great societies that don't practice pederasty (the west comes as an example)
So no, I highly doubt there is much correlation between pederasty and greatness.
