Well, they wouldnt have a footnote to offer. Im not certain, but im pretty sure 5,000 years ago or more, they had no concept of anything being "ancient" TIme was where they were right now, and they had no real idea of how old the earth actually was.

It is odd, if the same people and stories came about today, nobody would think anything of them, and would write the prophets off as physcos. But since it is so far removed from scrutiny, we believe it easier.

Guranteed nobody would believe Christ if he showed up today. Youd have cults, but mainstream would not believe him.

We do have to examine why we believe something from 5000 years ago, but not something we see today... Today we have greater ways of measuring and anlyzing.

But its possible God chose that time period for that reason, i really dont know.
