I don’t know what to say - that article includes countless examples of societies that thought the Earth was flat until they learned otherwise. If you’ve got other theories then great for you but I’m guessing they’re not mainstream.
- Retric 5y agoI am not disagreeing so much as saying there was more nuance. For a direct quote from that link: “early Muslims tended to also view the Earth as flat” In other words it was a common belief, but not universally accepted fact. So saying that culture believed in a flat earth isn’t true anymore than saying they believed the earth was round.
