A lot of hard archaeological evidence has been found that supports that hypothesis, but most of it has been shut away in the basements and back rooms of dusty museums by politically correct scientists and researchers.

Can't upset the accepted order, ya know.

I had an online friend who took archeology in college as his major and we talked about this quite a bit. He seems to think, like we, that we had a technical civilization here once or twice prior to ours. Unfortunately, he passed in 2006 from lymphoma. My grandmothers were interested in this stuff too, until she passed in 2010, my paternal grandmother had books on all of that stuff that she read since the 1920's. She was also a member of the Edgar Cayce Society. BTW, this topic has been known to be called "forbidden archeology." I know and wonder if there will be someone, somewhere that will unearth their equivalent of a radio or TV set or even part of a car, but still, as you put it, there are some evidence that can point to that. What's really weird that if that is the case, history can repeat itself since there are rumors that 11,000 years ago, Pakistan and India (or whatever they called themselves back then) fought with atomic weapons, it is kind of ironic they are in the same position today.

"forbidden archeology."

Yes, I'm familiar with the term, and have read quite a bit on the subject. Michael Cremo wrote a (now) famous book on the topic.

Over the last hundred years or so, thousands of artifacts have been discovered which don't fit the accepted paradigm of human history.
