I stood on the edge of one of those rabbit holes once. My dad gave me a book called The Sirius Mystery, and it starts out sounding well grounded, but the correlations made start getting wider and wider until…yes, aliens.
To this day I still feel he may have had some valid points at the beginning on the geology, and the Egyptian historian club is very defensive of questioning their conclusions. The truth could be somewhere between the two with people there longer than we thought, building things in a wetter environment…without aliens.
And as a side note, it always pisses me off when people attribute early man’s achievements to having an outside assistance. People were smart back then, they just didn’t know all we know. Don’t take away what THEY did just because we have some image of modern man being a genius above older generations. We’re standing on the shoulders of giants, and some of those giants started out with nothing and figured basic shit out themselves.

This isn’t a perfect indicator, but it’s damn close:
With the lone exception, god knows why, being Stonehenge. Somehow that’s the one thing white people could not achieve by themselves.
