Think about the risk involved in leaving Africa. Do people that take risks and are low IQ die younger? Maybe the migration to Europe selected for risk taking higher IQ people. IMO, taking risk is a top driver of improved human condition.

"Work ethic" also has a profound role in successful people. Does work ethic correlate with IQ?

I think it’s pretty safe to speculate that anyone who lived long enough to reproduce in that era was probably not a stupid person.
