Not necessarily dumb in retrospect, just certainly not bright or as bright as later (modern) populations or Ancient Romans. By the way a note on the Y Axis, it means standard deviations from the modern European population. So for example if we look at the Hunter-Gatherer samples in pic rel, they average is predicted to be ~3 standard deviations below the modern European average in educational attainment (i.e. less than 1%ile), while the Republican Romans would on average be predicted to be about on par with modern Europeans.
