 * UPDATE

After reading the latest chapter of the manga, I've decided to return to this old post of mine to report a conclusion I've come upon: my initial theory that Humanity before the walls lived in the 15th or 16th centuries was only a few hundred years off its intended mark.



Judging by the look of this photograph in the latest chapter (emphasis on PHOTOGRAPH), I have come to the conclusion that Humanity outside of the walls actually lived in the 19th century. Considering the first picture being photographed in the year 1814, and judging by how Grisha, and what I assume was his family outside of the walls, is dressed, he hails from sometime between the 1820s to the 1850s. The note on the back of this photo which shows his understanding of how photography works supplements this. This has given me a whole new outlook on the background of SnK, in addition to dissproving what everyone in this thread said about SnK actually taking place in the future. It's obvious that it simply did not. Anyone here willing to share their thoughts?
