Could be misdirection- if Caesar wanted a friction free removal of the library, he could have burned a load of twigs instead and taken the papers back to Rome- the Vatican archives would be an interesting place to stroll through if so...
His subsequent relationship with Cleopatra could indicate some sort of deal or joining of knowledge as well as kingdoms- Ptolemy (her brother whom she married and ruled with) was killed before this, leaving her the sole remaining heir of the Ptolemaic dynasty (300yrs of rule ended with her death in 30BC).
A neat bit of politics if you were Caesar- gain an unrivalled resource, end (or absorb) a dynasty in the same operation.
Speculation only of course.
There's a 3-book miniseries in the Halo universe about the Forerunners, how humanity had previously been a very advanced and powerful space-faring race, but who were subsequently crushed back down to ooga booga clubbing women on the head to procreate, because that previous human race were kicking Forerunner ass.
Going to look at some. Odd that when I cut and pasted into Youtube it listed that name with Rothchild as a third name, but didn't lead to a channel using it.
The Pyramids at Giza and the Sphinx were built with power tools by a sophisticated society over 12,000 years ago when Egypt was green and fertile, before the great inundation we know as the Flood from the Noah's Ark story.
I dunno about power tools but even my limited geology knowledge recognizes the difference between wind erosion and the water erosion marks on the Sphinx.
Look at how quickly mob mentality and groupthink takes over, we are not as advanced as you think. A few generations away from going back to hunter gatherers. everything intelligent and good is being purged from our youth using wokeness and narcissism.
Graham Hancock has explored some of the underwater cities that were once coastal cities many thousands of years ago. He's on YouTube and in the new age weird section of big bookstores. I have a whole shelf full of those books, and I have poked holes in a lot of the information. But there definitely were really old cities that are now under the sea or under the dirt.
Yup I knew about the poles shifting, and if the landmasses are sloshing about maybe almost all evidence of past civilizations gets wiped out. Just started reading your first link...
Millions of years....Garbage brought to you by Anti God scientists. Also another lie.
Cavemen were not a thing...people lived in cave as shelter after to Flood. Cave art is probably parents teaching or kids doodling.
While everyone goes all Atlantis and Ancient Aliens i ponder another concepts. First, perhaps humans prior to a certain time were just like the animals until one of two things happened: 1) They were given souls or 2) They discovered psychoactive drugs. Either of these two things would propel humans into a higher plane of thinking beyond “eat, sex, sleep”.
The second thing I think is relevant is how adoption curves look. Take the internet for example...its flat for a number of years and then goes parabolic. Who is today say our development of technology isnt the same on a larger scale. Especially since it takes technology to preserve technology.
I don't know the answers, but God is definitely the greatest scientist and mathematician. Somehow there is resolution. Every brand of faith has its beliefs that differ from others.
Um... The historical record points out multiple societies that predate ten thousand years ago. But you don't get from "socially adept monkey that can sweat" to "architecture" quickly. Civilization needs a lot of items and processes to be invented first - and they pretty much all come from a survival need. Specifically, from a response to a survival need that outgrows that need.
For example - cultivation. Humans were cultivating plants around them well before agriculture spread out from just being a thing that happens at loamy river deltas. The advanced math and reasoning skills needed to turn hides into functional garments could be turned to grander things like (eventually) urban planning, when all that energy wasn't being spent on just Not Being Naked. The power of flame to transform objects was first harnessed to transform edible resources into food, drastically increasing the caloric and nutritional value (which took our already overpowered Stamina stat and just made it game-breaking). It was only after that this same process would be turned to hides, and eventually those weird rocks you sometimes find, giving us metal.
First we made innovations that met our needs. Then, generations would be spent honing those innovations and most importantly, passing them down and securing them as Knowledge. Don't overlook the power of the Oral Tradition. It takes a long time for this process to happen, because pre-civilization, we are still just animals. The best animal, completely broken and overpowered, but we're still playing the game right alongside the big boys. Innovations take longer when all that innovative power has to go towards survival, and even your best innovations give you an edge (instead of guaranteeing success and dominance over the non-human world).
Also, a lot of these innovations only come through death, which slows the process down. A lot of people had to shit themselves to death before it was widespread knowledge which berries were poison. A lot of people lost their hands or their babies to wolves on the rocky road to domesticating the dog. But eventually you stack enough survival innovations on each other, and you'll have enough free time not spent surviving, that you can start managing resources. And from there you get civilizations.
Hunter-gathering in no way implies a lack of problem-solving, of trying to make things better and more efficient. In fact, it's quite the opposite - we only got to societies because our hunter-gatherer ancestors kept sharpening the knife of human ingenuity against the whetstone Nature and all the dangers she provides. And really, we couldn't have done any of it without sweat or flame.
Imagine the human history that was lost when the library at Alexandria burned...
Probably the cabal too!

Edward Leedskalnin has entered the chat...
Yes, there might be certain people who occasionally tear it down by depopulation to start over and still in control.

we all readily accept the idea of mad max, where we blow ourselves up and fall back down.
but we don't accept that we could have done it before. that we are the children of the survivors.
That's what probably happened over and over. I watch a lot of alternative archeology documentaries and there is wheat among the chaff.
Robert Sepehr has some good videos.
Going to look at some. Odd that when I cut and pasted into Youtube it listed that name with Rothchild as a third name, but didn't lead to a channel using it.
Hm. He probably did a video on the Rothschilds that was popular. Take off that last bit kek
Upon further non-youtube exploration it seems he is Jewish, but I'm not in the hate all jews camp.
Weird. He's Persian Aryan. Sounds like a Hebrews vs jews thing. But that a whole different you-know-what.
Yup
The Pyramids at Giza and the Sphinx were built with power tools by a sophisticated society over 12,000 years ago when Egypt was green and fertile, before the great inundation we know as the Flood from the Noah's Ark story.
Yup, and lots of other sites in Turkey and elsewhere at least 12,000 years old too.
I dunno about power tools but even my limited geology knowledge recognizes the difference between wind erosion and the water erosion marks on the Sphinx.
Maybe the first dudes were just really slow on the uptake

Oh, I don't think we are advanced, but yea They destroyed morality and goodness in less than 100 years.
Don't watch Netflix, but lots of documentaries of similar nature.

I really enjoyed it as well. Thought the production value & presentation of the info was top notch👌
Check out "suspicious observers" on youtube for scientific truth of current sun cycles. We are getting close to another extinction event.
When was the other one? Your answer cannot include a meteor strike.
Check out this rabbit hole:

Most Christians I know believe 7 to 9 thousand years. Bc the year is 2022 ad.
