You underestimate the effects of population growth. There was a lot of time in prehistory but the population at any given point was tiny compared to today.

i remember an old article that said DNA shows that all current humans can be traced back to 7 women during the ice age.

And they were all neighbours in the same age and shared a WhatsApp group.

Those people were alive and died it doesn't matter... There have been more people dead than are currently living by a lot.

We don't care how many people were alive back than compared to today. It's the total amount to how many have died...
