>coastlines during the last ice age ran hundreds of miles into what is now the ocean
>most human settlements are established on the coastlines
>aquatic archaeology is extremely underrepresented in the field but has already yielded several megalithic sites like pic related
>several pre-bronze age sites and artifacts exist and many of the bronze age sites are of questionable origin
>there is evidence of some large scale climatic disaster in the fossil record around 12,000 years ago which would have easily sent any civilization present at the time back to the stone age

"lol, there were no civilizations on Earth predating the ones we found in the deserts where conditions would be good for preserving evidence of early civilization"
t. archaeologists

Why do you chumps tow the party line on this issue?

I feel like we don't take really, really old stories as seriously as we should from a historical, archaeological perspective. The oldest stories from the Fertile Crescent, the hints of the oral traditions in Europe and elsewhere, the Epic of Gilgamesh, even the Book of Genesis.

Taking the Iliad and the Odyssey seriously as history allowed us to find the Mycenaean civilization. Maybe it would work again?

Please substantiate that the opinion you are lampooning is significant.

Why would a Christcuck claim archaeological evidence of pre-bronze age civilizations?

Don't they think the Earth is 6000 years old or whatever?

retard, we have plenty of remains of humans and their material remains during the ice age, and not just in "deserts". so here's what you are proposing: there was some crazy ass advanced shit happening only in coastal areas which weren't connected by roads of any kind, just packs of nomadic bands of hunter-gatherers. Also this advanced civilization only left megalith rock structures that didn't require advanced technology, just a seasonal investment of time and man-power by groups of humans

Maltese ruts can not have been made with limestone tools, although that's the hardest material on the Maltese islands.

Therefore, they must have been imported.

Said ruts also go in underwater, continuing out into the ocean.

Therefore, they must have been made when the sea levels were lower; before the last ice age.

Theeerefore, there must have been connected trade and as a result civillization before the end of the last ice age.

Please stop posting this, it really isn't that interesting. Around where I'm from we get lots of coastal megalithic sites, mostly dolmens in swampy areas. I've had many opportunites to examine them. They're literally rocks stacked together, nobody gives a shit.

I remember reading an article by Michael Wood, who claims that most of the European fairy tales have their origins in the Stone Age.

Carlyle came to pretty much the same basic conclusion with the nordic religion being based on the people who first moved into Scandinavia/Northern Europe and honestly, it makes quite a bit of sense.

I wouldn't be so mad if they at least admitted that they might be wrong about lol oldest civ is phoenicians hurrr. Global flood myths across every civilization, and they call it a coincidence. I'm the most atheistic fuck to live, but when every god damn people across the globe said the same fucking thing, maybe we ought to listen.

Human history goes back WAY longer than they want to admit.

Ever occur to you that the rocks are just what is left, because obviously the other materials like lumber and thatch would be gone?

The oldest buildings are found in France which is definitively NOT Phonecian so any claim for Phoenicia being the first civilization is decidedly false. On top of this, no one claims Phoenicia to be the oldest civilization. It's just the civilization upon which most current European civilizations are founded upon.

Archaeologists are the worst.

They hate having to revise their history.

They just ignore shit that bothers them.

kek, you don't even know what real archaelogists think. Phoenician isn't even a term used for any people pre-iron age, though Phoenician cities have continuity from the bronze age
