You would still have the same age, gender, personality, skin color, etc. and you would be able to speak at least one local language and would know basic information of the era and place. Your family, social standing, and such would be randomly picked.

      You would have been just fine in, say, North or East Africa a few hundred years ago.

      I think they picked 49 because it’s as modern as they could get within OP’s parameters.
