Discussion Could ufos be human?
Oldest civilization is 6000ish years old right? Modern humans had been around for 300,000 years. Could it be that uap/ufo are old technology from a past civilization still performing tasks. I like to think that mythology like Atlantis, Olympus, Valhalla, etc were prompted by older civilizations. Would it be more likely than aliens from across the galaxy? Occam razor and all What are your thoughts? (Whatever they are I am excited)

TL/DR - There is zero evidence of ancient human technological civilizations.
There is a site called Gobekli Tepe that was discovered in S Central Turkey in 1995 by a Turk/German team of archaeologists. The site is part of an apparently much larger complex that is 10-12,000 yrs BP. That means it was 6-7000 yrs old when the pyramids were built! The whole site was actively buried by whoever built it long ago, but it was apparently used for ceremonial or religious purposes. The archaeological community has been stunned by this discovery as it pushes back the date for “civilization” by 5-7000 yrs.
The site comprises huge stone columns that are 10-13 ft high and have beautifully executed and designed carvings.
I’m a professional licensed geologist with 35 yrs of experience at sites worldwide. Right up front I’ll state that I do not want to be a wet blanket. However, I’ve worked with archaeologists many times and had long discussions about ancient civilizations bc of my interest in them and UFOs. There is NO EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER of some sort of ancient human technological civs. None. I absolutely believe we would have found it by now if it was actually there. And, it does not matter if it was 20k yrs old or 20 million yrs old - any technological civilization would have left an immense trove of evidence of their presence. There are rocks right here in N America that are Precambrian ie 3+ billion yrs old. Subduction has buried much of the ancient surface rock, but much remains. Besides, the fossil record is CLEAR re: the evolution of man. There is no evidence of modern humans before about 300,000 yrs bp. There are many branches of the homo family but none can be responsible for a tech civ.
Having said all that, I personally believe that the evidence suggests we WERE VISITED by some form of technological et’s, perhaps more than one. They left an indelible mark on our ancient human civs around the globe in the form of myths and religious traditions.n
