But like that’s at least interesting, more so than “we crawled out of the woods ~10k years ago, invented everything, end of story” which feels… like it can’t be true to me. We have been functionally the same for ~200k years, we didn’t do anything in 190k years??

it’s basically just that we needed writing to really start building up stockpiles of knowledge and build upon things, and we didn’t start really permanently writing things down until we needed bookkeeping for tax reasons, which wasn’t necessary until we fucked up by inventing civilization.
Like seriously, everything we know in the modern world may very well stem from our ancestors in the fertile crescent wanting to brew beer and bake bread, it’s so fucking funny.

Well our best guess now place farming starting like 12k years ago, which falls in line with the timeframe of Atlantis. Like I get what you’re saying but it doesn’t necessarily follow that there was definitely no civilization before the fertile crescent, its just very unlikely and extremely difficult to prove.
