View Full Version : If you were transported 400 years into the past with no belongings, how would you...
Just watching the football with a mate who streams it to me online, and she just got this question from a question of the day thing -
If you were transported 400 years into the past with no belongings, how would you prove that you were from the future?
We are still both thinking, im sure there's a straight forward answer, but im stumped :laugh:

Without using one's knowledge of upcoming historic events, it would be a hard thing to prove.
I suppose you could predict the coming death (in 1625) and the ascension of Charles I? Talk about his quarrels with the government, who wanted to curb the Royal Prerogative? Even then the Civil War wouldn't start for a couple of decades.
And even then, the death of a long-ill king and his eldest surviving child is an easy thing to predict really.

Your clothes & shoes alone would be a way surely? , Obviously they might not automatically think .... you're from the future just because of that though,but they will be looking at you oddly lol.

You'd have to be careful with showing too much medical or scientific knowledge, lest you get condemned as a witch. Though mind, from 1624 (aka 400 years ago) to 100 years after that there'd "only" be four executions for witchcraft; by then, according to the letter of the law, it would only be a capital crime if you were accused of causing death by magic, or if you'd made a deal with Satan.
Advanced medical or scientific knowledge might not garner such accusations, to be fair.

Fair points to be fair
Maybe safer to just be the best poet , author , story teller , comedian and music composer :)
