Looking at the linked pic of the model of the city of Viminacium, it is incredible to me how anyone can deny the possibility that another advanced civilization could not have preceded the Egyptians.
That stated, we should “mind our Ps & Qs”, so-to-speak.

There are examples around the world. Aztecs & Incas are but two others.

My question is, what were coal miners doing at the beach?

Very much so. The article was mostly captions, so I had to fiddle with that, but worth the trip to the link.

“Where should I park this ship?”
“Just leave it by that coal mine. It will be fine.”

What type and how much “fossil fuels” were they burning to make the water level of the Danube so high way back then???

It wasn’t a beach when they started, but, y’know, global warming...

Yes, but I’m specifically referencing pre-Inca/Maya, >11k years ago.
Most people are oblivious as to the nature of the Greeks’ & Romans’ accomplishments.
Shameful & ignorant.

Same here. “Wha-?!?” Turns out it’s a strip mine, er, surface mine.

I agree, but my point was that we have examples of this from many time frames that we assumed the people were basically scraping to get by in their existence, which was not the case at all.

“There are examples around the world. Aztecs & Incas are but two others.”
Baalbek. We would be hard pressed to move those stones now. “ Each of these is estimated at about 750–800 tonnes (830–880 short tons).”.

I’m not arguing the point, but I don’t see the connection.

Hippodrome...a stadium where ancient Romans used to
race the hosts of The View.
