The answer is ‘yes’.
India was much more advanced than today’s western culture in our mythological era. Following are the examples:
There were incidents of unmarried pregnancy (Kunti in Mahabharata); of polygamy i.e. a person having more than one wife (Dashrath) and polyandry i.e. a woman having more than one husband (Draupadi); of separation without divorce (Ram and Sita); of live-in relationship (Radha and Krishna, they are still worshipped today together in any temple0; OF fight between brothers (Mahabharata); of fights for properties (Mahabharata); of friendships with girls (Krishna).
One way to understand mythology is to co-relate it with the human body mind and soul with internal Ramayana or internal Mahabharata where Krishna and Rama both indicate consciousness and Kans and Ravana as ego.
But if we take them as the human beings, then probably they live in more advanced era.
There were examples of brain transplant (Ganesha), surrogacy (birth of Balrama), IVF (birth of Kartikaya), asexual reproduction through pluripotent stem cells (Ganesha) and IUI (birth of many via Bhabhuti)
These are only personal views of the author.
