You must pick a point in human history before the 1950s to be spend the rest of your life in. What era and place would you choose?

You would still have the same age, gender, personality, skin color, etc. and you would be able to speak at least one local language and would know basic information of the era and place. Your family, social standing, and such would be randomly picked.

Somewhere before the advent of mankind, really fuck with some historians

Sorry to nitpick, but this would be the field of paleontology, not historians.

@Akasazh historians could get messed with via paleoanthropologists.

If there's one that could know its you, Livius.

But as I said it's a nitpick. Usually us historians keep to when language became involved. The rest would be prehistorical, but the distinction is not that clean cut (is it ever?).
