Personally, I believe the continental shelves were all dry land before the biblical flood, caused by a close orbit contact with another planet and its ice moon, which became our polar ice caps - and rain everywhere else.
Go ahead, laugh it up, fuzzball!
If only they has built wind farms instead of burning fossil fuels. They’d still be on dry land today.
what an amazing world we live on!
I know for a fact that Costa Ricans are very proud of their stone balls. No one knows who made them, or what they were for, but they did leave them all over the place. You’ll find them in museums, of course, and on rich people’s lawns.
Thanks for posting this. Very interesting.
In another 10,000 years, we wouldn’t recognize anything we have today...But who, today, really gives a crap???
“The discovery was particularly astonishing to scientists as the area predates all other finds in the area by at least 5,000 years, suggesting a much longer history of the civilization than was first assumed (carbon dating estimates the site to be almost 10,000 years old).”
More of an argument why not to rely on carbon dating alone than anything else. The ruins are simply not consistent with being that much older than nearby historical ruins that we can date more reliably. There would have been several intervening invasions and cultural shifts if that were true, but that simply isn’t evident when you compare the ruins.
Oh sorry, those were mine. I was wondering where I left them!
Fascinating. Thank you.
It’s in an area which flooded at the end of the last ice age. And that was about 10,000 years ago.

Before the current re-writing of history, how much did we know?
Let’s take for a moment, the fantastic world written about by Robert E. Howard. Snow-covered mountainous clan life to desert caravans, across steppes to large city-states, even references to ‘old Khitai’.
Some would say, “Oh, that’s just the overactive imagination of a recluse in the wastelands of Texas.”
For a man who stayed home with a sickly mother, and never strayed far from home, to have all that come from within him, without one iota of information of the outside world, is for me, a very large stretch.
Now today, there is talk, though never truly revealed, that under all the ice, in all the places of the world, lies buried ancient cities. Why are they not discussed? Who are they protecting?
These 10 mysterious places do engage the mind, yes.

But wait; Earth is only 6,000 years old...
