And if so ho do we find them? Do ruins last that long?
*during not after
Realistically, we'd have found pottery, worked metal, or the bones of domesticated animals.

good luck fiding your pottery in the middle of the atlantic
Glaciers probably grind everything to dust eventually

Shit gets a little spooky when you start looking at the ancient European megalith culture(s) and their possible predecessors. There's a screenshoted post some anon made about some ruins that are so old that they particularly submerged in the sea.
I miss the crytpo-history threads we had earlier in the year desu

There's no proven nore offered reason said hypothetical ruins would only be in currently submerged areas.
Also if your precious "Atlantis" exists its more likely to be Doggerland or the bottom of the Black Sea, not in the middle of the Atlantic ocean, where any oceanologist or geologist could easily tell you most definitely is not some sunken continent, but actually million year old sea-floor crust.

The oldest discovered ruins date to the 10th century BC at the most, some estimates put it closer to 8th.
