It is true that Ancient Greeks had an average IQ of 120+?

Yes, it is a scientific fact. The same goes for most Chinese prior to the Han Dynasty.

Yes and they all looked like this.

>>3152320
no they stole all their knowledge from kemet

>>3152320
Maybe, but I would say it is close to impossible to gather enough data to make the case airtight.

no, the average iq is always 100

>>3152510
Not in African countries.

>>3152540
In african countries the average iq is still 100. In a mensa exclusive village the uq is still 130

>>3152540
you don't understand how iq works, the average for a sample group must always be 100

>>3152547
>, the average for a sample group must always be 100
Dumbest thing that i ever heard

An average is the sum of all results divided by the number of results.

It isn't always 100; and Africa's average IQ is around 60

>How do i maths?

How do we figure out the IQ of people long dead?

>>3152864
This. It sounds like bs to measure the intelligence of people who are not only dead but have been over 2000 years ago.

>>3152881
You really can't.

>>3152320
i believe that IQ is closely related to a cultural aspect.

>>3152320
The average Greek was a superstitious retard with no intellectual accomplishments.

>>3152853
africa's average iq is 100, since that is the mean iq of the people being tested

>>3152853
do you even know what IQ stands for?

>hurr IQ is pseudoscience
>durr the average IQ is 100 in every single country on earth

retard

>>3152939
>>3152944
100 is the average IQ of the Whites, not the average of the Africans nor of mankind.

Even if you twist your words to give them a new meaning, they are still wrong.

when did I say iq is pseudoscience

>>3152999
>why do you consider that to be relevant
because I don't know what it is so I don't know if its relevant or not

do you?

>>3153008
yeah it's the fact that IQ seems to be rising in the general population over time, I just misinterpreted your "what is x" as an implied refutation in question form

just google that shit

>>3152991
Could be worse, just look at Turkey.

>>3152972
IQ the argument of any reactionary right wing Party.

I AM WORKING MINIMUM WAGE/ Living in MY MUMS BASEMENT! ONLY CUZ REFUGEES AND IMMIGRANTS TAKING MY JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BUT F THEY LEAVE MY COUNTRIES IQ will shine.

DONT YOU REMEMBER NEWTON WAS WHITE AND SO AM I. MUH LOGIC IS SO PURE!

>>3152320
No. There's no group of people currently alive with that high IQ. Further, nutrition(especially during childhood) is a HUGE factor and no-one in the ancient world had all that good nutrition available.

I mean, obviously it's impossible to verify, but it seems extremely unlikely.

>>3153127
>If you're poor or uneducated you are stupid and not entitled to an opinion

Very right wing of you.

>>3152923
Thats objectively untrue. First theres no precise way in which you could say iq tests are designed with cultural biases because the opposite is true. Its at its core just problem solving which is designed specifically to be universal. Second, jews, sikhs and east asians score higher than whites, so you should be able to explain how the western cultural biases of the test actually benefit the outcome for these people. Third, even then you also should be able to explain why arabs and indigenous americans still score significantly higher than sub-saharan africans considering all of these cultures have a similar history of western opression (you could even say that indigenous americans got it worse than anyone else).

>>3152923
Thats a nice excuse.

>>3152510
that's globally.

>>3153127
>IQ the argument of any reactionary right wing Party.
Fun fact. Both Hitler and Stalin banned IQ tests.

>>3152320

Yes, they're not burgers

why does /pol/ hate jews so much?

>>3152320
>Ancient Greeks came from Africa /see Herodotus for example/

KEK

>>3153241
You are right. Asians are simply geneticaly smarter than whites

>>3152320
No, it's just that the only ancient Greeks we hear about were the great men of their times.

Prior to the era of the printing press and cheap paper, only the most important things were recorded. So we hear a lot about philosophers and generals, but nobody was going to carve a sculpture of some random sheep-fucking peasant.

>>3152340
Tfw no thicc ancient Greek gf

>>3152320
No, but average Chinese,Japanese, Korean IQ is 120 on an American scale.

>what is the flynn effect
Something we've ran out of by the end of the 20th century, most likely caused by improving overall nutrition which didn't allow many to develop to the full of their genetic potential.

The current IQ trend in the West is downwards (~4 points lost over the past two or so decades, more or less depending on the country).

>>3155518
It's literally the most reliable measure in all of psychometrics by a large margin.
