Proof Sahara Desert was BLASTED by Ocean 12,000Yrs Ago (Should NOT Be Possible) - YouTube
More video evidence that SOMETHING went down in Western Sahara and even Montana after the last ice age.
It wasn't blasted as much as it was a lot more fertile and well-irrigated place, one theory also says that muh Atlantis was there.
A lot of things do line up for that 12-13000 years ago timeline. Like those tunnels in Turkey. I've seen some speculation that it might have been a polar shift, which is kind of concerning given the fact that the magnetic poles are moving much faster in the last couple of decades than in the two centuries before that, and that the magnetic field has been weakening at an exponential rate during the same time period. But I guess whatever happened back then might have been bad enough to compel them to build tunnels, but wasn't so bad that they didn't have time to dig them.
Well, Big E was born in Anatolia.
In any case, advanced and ancient are both relative terms.
The fact that we still had lots of coal, oil and iron deposits shows that those civilizations, while more advanced than what might have come before them, were not all that advanced.
My personal pet theory is that once there was an advanced civilization around the area of the Black not-Sea, when it was still a lake.
the massive flood that turned it into a sea linked with the Mediterranean wiped it and scattered it, and some bits and pieces of it ended up in other parts of the Eurasian and African land masses.
Did some go to the Americas and teach the locals about pyramids?
It is not impossible, but it is highly improbable.
It is far more probably that several groups of people, after they got to a certain level of societal and technological progress, started noticing things in nature, like the way shadows move, the way the stars change, the way simple mechanics work, and they all built what was basically an artificial mountain built out of smaller and smaller groupings of blocks.
I mean, building a decent-sized tower with the materials they had probably would have been harder, so a pyramid might have been the most practical home for the resting place of the local Big Pooh-Bah and communing with the local deities.
