For example, brain sizes have been shrinking for the last 40,000 years: https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/the-human-brain-has-been-getting-smaller-since-the-stone-age Does that mean stone age people were smarter than us? It's doubtful because IQ gives such a huge advantage for survival, that at least until recently, the smarter ones were probably more successful in reproducing and protecting their lineage.
