Open Discussion: lost advanced civilzations?
The first modern humans (brains and all) evolved around 250,000 years ago.
The first known Human civilization arose in Jerico cira 9500 BC. about 11,000 years ago.
There is a massive gap of 239,000 years with little to no known advancement. (That we know of), then bam!
Sumer (5300-2000 BC) widely accepted as the first complex civilization to develop on Earth.
Indus Valley Civilization: (3300–1700 BC, flourished 2600–1900 BC)
Ancient Egypt (3200–343 BC)
ect. ect.
It has only been within the past 100 or 200 years that we have become "Technologically advanced" with computers, cars, Airplanes, and skyscrapers. Do you think that there were other advanced civilizations just like us that were wiped out and science has not uncovered?
What are the odds that we are wiped out then have to relearn lost information over and over again. Maybe we have no evidence of those lost civilizations because there just isn't any left. That's 200,000 years of weather and decay.
I know all about the stone age, and the Paleolithic age, but really are the "Cavemen" and "Hunter Gatherers" really the truth behind the evidence they find or are they finding the remains of ancient civilizations. Really why would it take nearly 240K years to migrate from one continent to another with and learn how to use stone tools when they are MODERN HUMANS. With Modern human rationality and intellect. Remember we are that same species, just with more technology. We think the same way.
The descriptions of Cave men depicted by evolutionists and what they teach in schools, right down to the tiniest detail, is based on no scientific findings whatsoever, but solely on its author's imagination. Evolutionists, who dress up tales of struggle for survival with various scientific terms, base all their details on the basis of a few pieces of bone. Obviously, bone fragments cannot provide any definite information as to whatever emotions inspired people in very ancient times, what their daily lives were like, or how they divided work amongst themselves.

This tool, made out of obsidian-a dark, glass-like rock-dates back to 10,000 BCE. It is impossible to shape obsidian just by hitting it with a stone.
Think about it, if we disappeared today due to a massive mega-plague and then there is a population bottleneck with little to know information about us moving on to the next generation except myths, what would happen to our structures? Our buildings? in lets say 10,000 years. I doubt there will be little if anything left. And if our civilization was only advanced in an isolated area such as India, or Africa And a plague or war wiped us out then there would be no evidence.
