average Greek was a slave or peasant. Greeks were capable of both physical and intellectual feats that we only dream of today. The volume of the average human skull has fallen by about the size of a tennis ball since the bronze age.

"It's both irrelevant and immoral to pass judgement on someone's height, since that which we can say of the thing itself only concerns our own sense, and not judging man on the good he does but on his looks is passing judgement obscured by our empiric conditions"
