How many hours of sleep was optimal for our ancestors

[autistic_tendencies]

Wouldn’t sleeping 7-9 hours leave you vulnerable to predators or getting killed off by enemies

They slept a lot more than us because they did a lot more physical work, and also they ate more calories for energy, which made them even sleepier in addition to being physically tired. They also stationed themselves in places without direct predators and where enemies could not easily reach them, if those enemies existed.

Depends how long its dark, in winter longer in summer they slept shorter

They were sleeping in groups,some individuals to remain vigilant while others rested
