The 7,000-Year Floor
Deep-Time Bodily-Selection Baseline — Report #105
Eugenics did not begin with Galton. The documentary floor shows humans systematically selecting, marking and engineering the body since the start of recorded history — the 20th-century industrial version is the terminus of a continuous practice, not its origin.
Seven practices, one mechanism (the Covenant-Exemption fork): the apex writes a rigid biological rule for the base and a quiet exception for itself. Human sacrifice (Templo Mayor / Ur / Carthage), mummification (Chinchorro / Egypt / Han jade suits), cranial deformation (Paracas / Maya / Huns), foot-binding (Song -> 1000 yrs), castration (China / Byzantium / Ottoman), infanticide (Sparta Apothetae / Rome's Twelve Tables), and royal endogamy (Ptolemies / Inca / Habsburgs).
Read substrate-vs-announcement: the physical act stays constant while the justification rotates. Held: structural-recurrence; human actors; no NHI/cabal collapse.
