Not really a stretch there, guy. The Sahara was full of vegetation, lakes, etc., less than 10,000 years ago.
Your reading comprehension sucks. The opinion was the rest of it. Are you Somali?

You mean line the soft bodied squid lords that ruled the earth primeval with biotech and left no traces because of their soft bodied nature?

Follow the evidence
The evidence literally says there is not enough time in Earth’s history for multiple advanced civilizations to develop.

Guys we have a hard core Darwinian here. Trust the "Science".

There could have been advanced civilizations thousands of years before current estimates, but not millions.

Billions? Maybe not, but I think there was an advanced civilization before the timeline modern archeologists have pushed. Göbekli Tepe, Sacsayhuamán, the LIDAR results in the Amazon, point to something outside of the narrative timeline.
I'm fascinated by some of the stuff Graham Handcock pushes. Even the occasional Rogan Podcast will explore some of it.

100,000 years a fraction of a blink of an eye in terms of billions of years.

Not billions. Maybe millions.
Don't think earth was really even capable of holding larger lifeforms until a billion years ago.

With rocks and copper tools?
No.
Neither did they. They did it in a way where it was common enough that we see evidence of these massive building stones with perfect mortarless construction all over the planet. That's not slaves banging on big rocks with little rocks. We'll just ignore the hauling them hundreds of miles thing for now.

You have to give us a level of advanced. More advanced than we are now, that would be a negative. Advanced to the level of Egyptians, possibly.
The problem is no evidence that they existed. Civilizations progressing up to Egyptians, possibly Greek or Roman, could have all their history erased by the right event if they were in a small region of the planet. They could not have been global, we would have found fossils by now.
We are finding fossils up to around ~760 million years old, and none of those are human like. That would mean this civilization would have to be older than that, they Earth was not very habitable the further you go back.
The lack of advanced life evidence on the moon is why we know we are the most advanced to walk the planet. The moon is a time capsule. The Apollo missions will leave a record of humanity for another 5 billion years.

Or Gonswana's evolution and splitting asunder caused so much erosion that anything on the surface is rubble on the now subducted ocean bottom. Look to algae and lichens and bacteria as the ultimate survivors.
Some of the microfossils from the Paleozoic exist because their 'shells' are acid resisitant and we can remove them from sedimentary rocks. Anything with a calcareous shell that's a whole lot older. .would be crushed and an impurity in an igneous or metamorhic rock by now.
