smaller, a lot smaller
actually, the average foot size for women about one hundred years ago was like a four, and because of better nutrition and a number of other factors, womens feet have grown to be an average of a size eight. i'm assuming that it is the same for men, and that they could have been even smaller the farther back in time you go

Smaller most likely. Most folks were hunter, gathers back then universally food supply was less so smaller humans on all scales. We are much larger feet and all now days heck even in the last 100 yrs we've grown larger on average

Humans have been getting bigger on avg. over the years. So feet where smaller thousands of years ago, and we were also shorter" who knows when the growing trend will stop.

Well, people were overall smaller than today. Better nutrition means healthier people which means taller, larger people. People even one hundred years ago were on average a couple of inches shorter than the people of today. A man who is six feet tall would have been considered tall.

Peoples feet were much smaller because people long ago in general were smaller.Long ago people ate nothing but organic food which contained no harmful insect pesticides.And now days meat produce is loaded with growth hormones which are consumed even when thouroughly cooked.People now-a-days are much bigger because of it.

You dumb people. It was probably the exact same size. The Bible says God Created man. NOT we evolved from stupid monkeys.
