I always figured people in a stone-age tribe in a subtropic region, in a period with no wars, natural disasters and plagues (these conditions must have existed somewhere right?), would have had the best lives.
Just hanging around making some basic tools, pots and bows and arrows, hunting a bit, foraging some fruits and mushrooms, be amazed by nature. Not too bad.
Ancient Minoan would be the place, chilling on the sunny island of Crete in the reasonably calm Mediterranean sea with abundances of food and water as well as trade goods from all over the Mediterranean. And they weren’t crazed militarists like most of the other Greek tribes, so don’t have to worry too much about war either.
Yeah man. Carve a log into a surfboard. Sing carefree songs with cartoon animals. Poop on a leaf and wipe with sand. Skinny dip with your elders. Just live a natural life free of all the capitalism.

Yeah nah.
Imagine having a toothache that just never went away.
Get a flu and you’re dead. No thanks.
