And they also have the stars as points of light in the heavens, and the sun as a flat disc. They had zero concept that these were huge,spheroid balls of gas at various distances from the earth..Because ancient man had no concept of those little points of lihht beings stars like our sun. They had no concept that we were even circling the Sun.I don’t know how ancient men didn’t look up at the stars and assume there was other humans circling every star.

that's not entirely true -

ancient Egyptian and Greek astronomical tables ... every ancient civilization on Earth on every continent have some form of detailed astronomical depictions found in their historical remains. the Greek table has the planets circling the sun.
The Greeks never described the phases of venus and used them to dedicate rhe sxiatence od spheroid planets and a spheroid sun.
