As a resident theist, I have to say that this new information fits quite nicely with what most religious texts claim; namely that mankind has been degrading biologically since its inception, not progressing. We make a lot of assumptions about ancient mankind that, as I have often argued, are based off the assumption that they were lesser beings than we are today, i.e. we project our modern day mentality back a few thousand years and say look how dumb they were. The evidence, however, is quite to the contrary. Despite their supposed 'lack of technological sophistication' they found solutions to problems and accomplished feats that modern engineers with all of their tools and technology are hard pressed to recreate. Take the Nazca lines, Stonehenge, the Pyramids, and the Vedas( allegedly written appx. 2000 years before man was 'supposed' to have a written language and describing sciences that would not be 'discovered' for nearly 7000 years).-To me, this is just another confirmation of something I have always believed. I am sure I will catch grief for it, but the evidence keeps mounting up.
