Arianne Cohen Quotes

Heights Plummeted Because Of A Little Disaster Called Civilization. "Heights Go Way Down When We Go Into State Society," Says Bogin. "When Egypt Conquered The Nile Area, The Height Of Peasants Fell Dramatically. They Moved From Having Access To A Wide Variety Of Foods To Growing What The Egyptian State Demanded. Their Bones Show Lots Of Deficiencies In Minerals And Iron." The Same Stunting Happened Repeatedly Throughout History. As Late As The 1800s, Male Cheyenne Indians, Who Hunted Bison And Collected Berries, Averaged A Whopping 5'10", Towering Above Even Today's Americans, Not To Mention General Custer's Cavalry, Which Averaged 5'7", And The Period's Wealthy European Monarchies.
