You can't interact with anything, but you are free to travel space and time at leisure.

What are the first historical events you will witness for yourself with this ability?
>>
Rome for sure.

Then I'd go all the way back to Australopithecus and watch development all the way up to the first agricultural settlements.

Ancient Greece,for be a student of Plato and know Aristotle.

Obviously, I would try to find the time period in the fertile crescent in which the gap was bridged between the invention of systematic agrarian society and the rise of the first society of law and order, organization of religion, functional political systems, and exchange of goods by way of a standardized currency.

That would be the first thing I would want to see. However, this time-traveling ghost idea needs some refining. Can I understand any languages spoken around me? Can I fast-forward and slow down the passage of time in the local of space and time I send myself to? For example, could I teleport to the beginning of the construction of the great pyramids and then speed up the passage of time to watch its full completion without waiting the full amount of years taken to complete a task? Can I fly up into the sky and watch the construction of cities, battles, and disasters in high speed?

If I had those capabilities as a time traveling ghost, I would beam myself of location to location, watching the rise of various civilizations from the stone age into modernity.

China, egypt, rome, Mesoamerica, Mongolia, northern Europe, etc

Burial of Genghis Khan

I'd go and see if Jesus was the real deal, obviously.

How would that not be the first thing everyone would do? Especially if you're a ghost, it might be good to know a little more about how the afterlife works.
>>
>>2174615
To refine my post into a simplified statement, if I had all the capabilities I spoke of, I would see everything. Everything, from the critical moments deemed significant by historians, down to the most mundane moments in every single person's life. I would be omnipresent like a supreme deity, even watching my own birth and life
>>
>>2174533

I'd do pretty much the same thing as this guy: >>2174615 >>2174645

However, I have one important question: I can't interact with "anything", but does that mean I can't interact with myself?

Because, to be very honest with you, OP, if I could interact with myself my first priority would be jerking off to the hottest women, the greatest orgies, the harems of History. From the sacred prostitutes of Ishtar, the harem of the Chinese emperor to the Bacchanalia and the khlysts, from Helen of Troy to Theodora and Marie-Antoinette.

That'd get boring real quick, you'd watch every single peasant that ever lived work on his field for 14 hours every single day. You'd watch countless of people watching and read the same books/movies for years and years. You'd end up as an insane ghost like this.

Id go back to Myacenean Greece to see if the bullshit in Greek Mythology was true.

I'd time travel to Cretacous Laramidia, in order to go on a dino safari.

I`d try to got trough all the "mythical" parts of history, like three sovereigns and five emperors period in China, myacenean Greece and the like

>What are the first historical events you will witness for yourself with this ability?
advance forward in time to learn the final fate of western civilization. I'd want to see what all future civilizations were, and learn the final fate of humanity.

Then I'd go back and look at all the historical events that I am already aware of, like the life of Jesus of Nazareth and the fall of the Roman Empire
>>
>>2174533
I'm curious about the Indo-Europeanization of Europe and Indo-European culture in general.
>>
>>2174807
I'm assuming I have the ghost power of being freed from the human conditions of boredom, anxiety, depression, etcetera.

I would be a purely content ghost, with powers to control my perspective of time and space, thus allowing me to watch the entire life of say, a Persian peasant that spends his entire mundane life reaping fields of wheat and in time tending to the menial and tedious grind of wedding, raising a family, and dying from natural causes in his early fifties after a lifetime of hard field work. The irrelevance of time to my ghostlyness would allow me to be completely content.
>>
In no particular order.

Building of Stonehenge
Battle of Alesia and all of Caesars battles including his murder
Republican and Imperial Rome respectively
Peloponnesian war
Follow Diogenes around for the mad banter
Follow Alexander through his life
Battles of Trafalgar, The Nile and Cape St Vincent
Battle of Waterloo and Austerlitz
The first three crusades
Agincourt and Crecy
Fall of Constantinople
Might pop over to China during the 3 Kingdoms era
Japan during the Meiji era
Witness every major battle of WW1 & 2
Follow Hitler from 1933 onwards

And just for shits and giggles perv on lots of historical women and rate them on a scale of 1/10

That's a great idea.
