Basically the "great man theory"
And whatever interaction&exchange there was/is ,it's between such men regardless of geography&time , a >0,01% of a nation's(or worldwide?) population while the "tribe" takes the credit for "giving birth" to such people to raise its status (we're all guilty of that ofc) , any "achievement" can be traced back to a man's curiosity who passed it to others ,something like a virus that affects certain(similar-minded) people.
Other than that extra-ordinary achievements is more than the "muh IQ study" genetics that some types praise like passion ,hardwork (that require the right stimuli from environment) and a bit of luck(again the right stimuli at the right time ,see: "eureka") ,even the genetics of these genius achievers are depended on luck and most probably the majority of those who had(or have them) haven't left(won't leave) something great behind.
