Imagine a million years from now and our civilization has been gone for 500,000 years and some new civilization finds the ruins of san francisco and new york what do you think they would think how and why we built these great structures and what do you think they would think of graffiti and what tribe of people would you think they would call say the city of san francisco's inhabitants




What will they think about all the Styrofoam? What will they think it was for? Maybe some weird geological crap?

I've often wondered if there were advanced civilizations billions of years ago that had everything wiped out by time and we are none the wiser. How do we even know if the planet is 4.6 billion years old?

it is generally accepted that the universe is approx. 14 billion years old.  This is based on microwave background radiation. (im not a physicist so don't ask me how)

If planets form the way the taught me in school (particles gradually coalesce from nebulae) then approx 4 billion sounds plausible for the age of the earth.  I mean, supposedly, stars had to be born and die in order for there to be elements heavier than carbon. So that all had to happen for a bit before the earth could form. :shrug:

I highly doubt this sophisticated society would've put so much effort into the pyramids if they didn't get some direct benefit from it.

"Let's just work our asses off to build these pyramids, even though they won't do anything for us, yeah sounds great!"

there must be something we still don't know.

I find it very interesting that we now "know" the origin of the universe and its age and yet we still can't figure out how life springs from lifeless matter.  Countless experiments and billions invested in getting to this answer and we can't figure it out.

I have an alright understanding of physics and IMO, the error bars on 4.6 billion years are probably order 1 billion years. So, Earth could be 1 billion years old or it could be 10 billion years old. It's really anyone's guess. Suppose it were more like 10 billion years old. Then, there could have been multiple cycles of intelligent life. That is long enough that the whole surface of the planet would be renewed by tectonic activity and magma convection more than 1 time.

you completely misunderstand the impetus behind the construction of the pyramids. they were designed to be the "resurrection machines" of god-kings who were desperate for eternal life. their construction really isnt that miraculous when you consider the time it took to build them and the multitudes of servants the pharoah would have had at his disposal.

Like these places. If we had spent all that manpower on building sewers instead, maybe, the black death wouldn't have been quite so black.
Then again, the population of Europe would be through the roof, wars and strife would be more prevelent as... fuck it. Swings and roundabouts. :shrug:

Servants and a project of that magnitude was very expensive ... even for a Pharaoh.  The costs and sacrifices must have been tremendous.

expensive in what sense? we're talking about an era in human history where the premium was set on physical labour. the very existence of the ancient Egyptians depended on their ability to use manpower to exploit the natural resources of the Nile valley (aluvial flood plains which yielded wheat). its little wonder that this bias for manpower carried over into their archetectural persuits.

i imagine the human cost was tremendous, but you don't naysay a god-king. :blewmeanie:

Slave labor still has to be organized, fed, clothed, housed, etc.  All that effort was eating up resources that could be invested in other project, military, farming, etc.  They may have been Pharoah's but if you don't fill the potholes, even the slaves get pissed off.

The statue of liberty is a depiction of  the goddess Ishtar and draws parallel inspiration from Athena, Columbia and a few other old world/pagan deities. 

I think that the Egyptians pulled squatters right to the land in which the pyramids were already on.  graham Hancock had touched on this subject matter a bit, I do believe.  Basically there is talk against what current academia believes in that mankind is much older than we think or what our timescales measure...

So why were the pyramids built with precise mathematical calculations?

u know what i think, i think the earth doesnt even have an age, it is timeless.

probably just goes through a certain number of years and then it resets. it might not even take as long as we think. might take like 10,000 years or some shit, or probably alot less.

maybe the ancient egyptians were aware of this reset and they went against the current and build the pyramids to stand the test of time so to speak.

I don't think the Egyptians built the pyramids, or at least built all of the structures in egypt. Sphinx.
