Is their an approximate definition for advanced civilization?

For this topic, I think it's roughly anything beyond hunter-gatherers. So any city-based societies with some knowledge of the movement of stars and engineering is probably as good a definition as any.

To me, the Bimini Road has always been solid evidence of some civilization which was advanced enough to not only create, move and lay large stone slabs weighing tons, but to also level them out as they placed them (at least some of them are balanced on multiple rocks placed between them and the sea floor). They aren't all that deep (around 18 feet), but even if they were designed to be a breaker, it points to a time when the water level was far lower than it is now (the distance to the current shoreline is around 2,300 feet and it's somewhat close to where the land begins to drop off LINK).



There have been multiple smatterings of research on the area, but they run the gamut of "man-made" to "natural rock formation".



That's a rather oddly precise natural formation of stone slabs.
