No.

Earth was not a neatly habitable place "billions of years ago."

No, the millions of tons of glaciers during the last ice age moving around pulverized their computers and vehicles into sand, and we are too stupid to read the signs.

Who/what is it then? What super smart entity decided to leave their mark by stacking really heavy rocks and then disappearing without a word? Like that was the skill they wanted to show off but nothing else. Who did that?

That's the thing. I don't think they were showing off. I think it was just a good way to build stuff in an earthquake zone. The Pyramids are something else entirely. That's really the proof but they won't allow it to be exposed. There's a LOT about the pyramids we're being straight up lied to about. Watch Zahi Hawass on Rogan and tell me you know anything about the Giza Plateau.

It wasn't HIS Egyptians that built that. The water weathering on the sphinx is proof enough of that. That was from back when the Sahara was verdant. Won't be long. Truth is coming.

You’ll catch a lot of shite for smoking weed, but I don’t see it as unreasonable.

In India they have strata layers that are 4 billion years old. There is a layer about 1.5 billion years old that contained traces of material that is only formed by nuclear explosions. In the layers before that they found gold in a purer form then occurs naturally.

Billions? No

Also how you mean "advanced" matters a great deal.

Is it possible that a civilization as advanced as us today existed in the deep past? Almost no chance.

Is it possible that there are civilizations that we haven't found yet, or have found and misconceptualize who were more advanced than their contemporaries? Almost guaranteed.

The biggest clue in this, which the alternative historians get so wrong, is the use of stone.

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.



Exactly.

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.

There also is all of the record of the human story that we do have, showing how not advanced humans were across the globe for most of our lives.

And we have LOTS of evidence of all the other stuff going on around that time, and back millions of years.

The Egyptians didn’t build the Great Pyramid

Stones are a good way to build stuff if you're not advanced.

They are not a good material for advanced civilizations. We have a history that we know and can verify 100% to show why stone building is inefficient and not optimal for advancing, industrialized societies. This isn't some mystery that we are speculating about.

Now if you want to argue something like the pyramids show evidence of a prior, non-advanced civilization of a culture prior to ancient Egyptian culture, or a proto-Egyptian culture? That theory can work.

But they were only "advanced" for their contemporaries. Not compared to today.

It would take less than a million years to completely erase any evidence of an advanced civilization, just through the natural weather cycles and tectonic movements of earth. Land a million years ago could be a mile below earth's surface in some parts of the world. Even space tech would likely disappear over that timeline.


But in many other parts of the world, millions of years are exposed to the elements for all to see.

An advanced civilization could certainly be found by an archaeological dig if they looked in the right place, but they haven't looked everywhere.

There was absolutely at catastrophic flood that happens 10,000+ years ago
Ancient humans were a highly advanced, space-faring culture with an interstellar empire spanning the Orion arm of the Milky Way. They encountered the Flood, an extragalactic parasite that fed on sentient organisms. Fleeing the Flood deeper into the galaxy, they came into conflict with the more advanced Forerunner civilization.

The Forerunner viewed humanity’s incursion into their territory as an act of war. They defeated the ancient humans and devolved them to a primitive stage, only to discover the Flood that had been chasing them. With no answer to defeating the Flood, the Forerunner used massive super weapons to cleanse the entire galaxy of sentient life and starve out the Flood, eliminating themselves and wiping all evidence of the prehistoric conflict.

A bunch of pasty white guys in black cloaks who were from another world helped along life on this planet.
