    Enough gold valuables to cover my funeral expenses since our bodies aren’t capable of handling the bacteria in the water and food back then and we’d be dead in a week.

      Literally none of the bacteria would be resistant strains.

      You could just bring some penicillin instead of gold and actually survive.

            Or just make a simple activated charcoal and UV filter and actually enjoy clean water
