Lost Civilisation - Tumblr Posts
It is certainly an intriguing perspective, but it does raise the question of whether we are perhaps viewing a lost civilisation from the vantage point of an existing one.
It suggests that what we perceive as certain and solid today is, to some extent, shaped by our subjective assumptions. Everything is in a state of flux, and nothing is permanent. If we, as a species, can avoid complete failure, there may come a time when someone looks at the ruins of our civilisation and thinks it's really nice to look at.
It might be suggested that the entire ancient world had to speak Latin, for better or worse, and that this was a necessary step to benefit from civilisation.

If you only see what's there, you're not seeing properly.

The story of an ancient lost civilization in the clip is inspired by the flood theory... The parable of Noah is similar to records in the culture of India and Persia. The global flood is also remembered by the indigenous people of Australia, the aborigines. Civilizations of South and Central America even speak of multiple global floods. The global flood (end of the world - Armageddon) is present in every culture and religion. From Gilgamesh to the Mayan records, the world may have suffered partial destruction even multiple times. Today, archeology redefines the time of existence of human civilization. Older artifacts that do not match earlier visions are being found. "Gelung Masa" (Time Loop) is a piece by the Gotard project inspired by the theory of infinity of time - because can it be certainly denied that the global civilization has already existed many times, just as the records of ancient American civilizations say?
