If God can create all that is then He can state it’s age with full authority.
What would all of Creation even be without the Word of God known to someone in it? It would be nothing. It certainly wouldn’t matter to God. Creation is mechanical, an engine. Man is the pilot...

There were legends of verdant lands on the poles that predate Hollywood. I can’t remember the one from South America.
Problem with dating is at some point is a WAG.

I ran across this recently, called the 6666 Kilometer Mystery.
The Distance between various monuments are: Kailash to North pole – 6666 Km; Kailash to Stonehenge – 6666 Km; Egyptian pyramids to North pole – 6666 Km; Stonehenge to Devil’s tower – 6666 Km; Stonehenge to Bermuda triangle – 6666 Km; Bermuda triangle to Easter island – 6666 Km; Easter island to Tazumal – 6666 Km.

I thought of that but the map shows Antarctica was about the same place then as it is now. Without the constriction of the Bering Strait, I would guess that there would be much stronger ocean currents between the equator and the poles, keeping things fairly even.

I’ve read that the Sahara Desert was once at the South Pole and the rock has gouges left by ice in it.

Yeah, but it was forested. A warmer Earf would have been nice and humid. Not sure where the axis of rotation might have migrated through the millenia.
