I'm not magic but I do know what I'm talking about and I'm not some crazy person. I am a responsible person.

And stop using the word theory. You don't know what that word means in a scientific sense.
I know exactly what theory means and there clearly is ancient alien theory.
For the poster about time travel, J. Edgar Hoover's some George suggested that his father believed that Roswell aliens were extratemporal rather than extraterrestial - time travelers! So, there are time travel theories. Think about this and it is IMPORTANT - these "ancient aliens" could really be humans of the future traveling back in time.
This theory needs a lot of research, but you can read about it. You need to study the paradox of time first though.

This ties in to the Antikythera Mechanism, the ancient computer found in a shipwreck from about 200 b.c.
So you're telling me that they found an electronic device in 200 BC?

No. At the time of that sculpture, the ancient world had two types of mirrors in that area: obsidian and bronze(but bronze mirrors weren't in that particular area as they were more Mesopotamian. Obsidian and bronze mirrors of that time did not look like that.
Glass mirrors came out about the 1st Century A.D.
I told you I've researched all the mainstream "explanations."

So you think they drew pictures of advanced alien technology, but why didn't they write about it?

The Antikythera mechanism is an ancient complex calculating machine. It was probably manually operated.
Of course, there is evidence of lighting systems in ancient pyramids, so I laugh at the "it can't be electric" gibberish.
They have found ancient batteries in Baghdad. ""Dr. Wilhelm Koenig of the Iraq Museum in Bagdad reported recently that a peculiar instrument was unearthed by an expedition of his museum in the summer of 1936. The find was made at Khujut Rabu'a, not far to the southeast of Bagdad. It consisted of a vase made of clay, about 14 centimeters high and with its largest diameter 8 centimeters." 1939 report in Astounding magazine which has been confirmed more recently dozens of times

An exceedingly definitive article

IMO, calling the Antikythera Mechanism a computer is more unreasonable than that. Even the alien theory scientists don't believe it's an electronic device able to store a program and retrieve information from its memory.
Posted on 2/4/16 at 5:20 pm to Jim Rockford
Incredible. I wonder what other secrets the "Ancient" World holds.

I didn't say electric, I said electronic. Now can you please explain to me how that mechanism meets this definition:
An electronic device that stores and manipulates information. Unlike a calculator, it is able to store a program and retrieve information from its memory. Most computers today are digital, which means they perform operations with quantities represented electronically as digits.

I don't think you understand what the word "proves" means.

I never said it was an electronic device, but it was a form of calculating machine. And, there was ancient electricity no matter what some people say.
