Conventional archaeology propagates the notion that the further we look back into history, the more archaic the civilizations we see and the more inferior their methods of construction. Yet all over the world are ancient anomalies and megalithic marvels constructed with a lost high technology that confound today’s experts, defy our greatest modern engineering and tell us a different version of history… Source: megalithicmarvels.com 12 Photographs Mainstream Archaeology Does Not Want You To See

Just the first sentence is incorrect and things deteriorate from there. We do not espouse the ideas of Spencer's social Darwinism of the late 1800's. All people from roughly 60.000 ya have the same braincase and potential for thoughts such as ours in the 2000's. In fact, the entire idea is silly. Homo sapiens neandertalensis had larger brains than ours. Talent, ability, and the formulation of technology and art, which are two sides of the same coin, are not the domain of relatively recent people. Check out the rock shelter paintings of TransPecos Texas. More expressive, polychromatic, and esoteric than those in Cromagnon, FR. Fate Bell features three story tall paintings of fabulous talent .ca. 10,000 ya. Archaeologists, Anthropologists first, see multilineal rise and fall of great civilizations in both prehistoric and historic contexts. The very idea of you carelessly maligning a careful scientific study of individual cultures is just offensive and unnecessary. Just as with physical evolution, multilineal development, the rise and fall of cultures has, and will continue to be studied by my profession. Maybe go to a University library and look at any primer for ANTH 101and then make videos about our awesome, intelligent and thoughtful ancestors. Why would you want to malign the people you descended from by suggesting they couldn't figure out how to engineer and carry out large and beautiful art and architecture? Think how good you would be at any specialized craft if you didn't spend every day of your life in front of a tv, smartphone, at school and at a job. Hunter gatherers spent about 4hrs work over an average of 4 days, 86% plantfoods gathered by women. The extant cultures today inform us that prior to global civilizations we were not wandering helpless and starving. They tend to be thoutful, open-minded and diplomatic with neighboring cultures, and everyone can keep themselves fed and content and focused on interesting thoughts, skills and abilities lost on us 'modern' people.

My first ever reply so please be gentle. As a 57 year old engineering manager, just looking at the precision fit of the stone walls could not have been constructed using the tools available at that time. Your thoughts?

I don't mean to be rude - but simply put people who research and study exclusively what is on planet Earth are missing an enormous piece of the puzzle. I don't understand why the vast majority of humans on our planet, many of them scientists refuse to study the images coming from the Rovers on Mars and the satellites orbiting around various planets etc in our solar system. The assumption is everything up there is natural which is incorrect.
