The ancients were amazing. If you consider that man was created fully formed, with an adult mind and a body that could live for up to nearly a millenium (all the while collecting experience and building on past achievements), then who knows what amazing feats might have been accomplished in the more approximately 1650 years prior to the Great Flood or even right after?

Ancient history was nothing like the modern schoolbooks tell it, and all these finds continue to prove that.

"Ancient history was nothing like the modern schoolbooks tell it, and all these finds continue to prove that."

My post is actually the punch line to an old joke from the 70's. Its the only part of the joke I remember and its become sort of a catch all wise crack for stories like this.

Having said that, I completely agree with your statement. Personally I believe that several civilizations that were highly intelligent and posessing advanced technology have came and gone from this planet.
