Was there really an advanced race living before the ice age?

Anything in particular from the video that strikes your fancy or that you feel compelling enough to discuss? Or is this just a drive by posting with a video dumped in my front yard?

Does it relate to Cremo? If so, do we need to know anything beyond that?

Well it's like a movie, you start watching it and think this is great or the opposite
But it's no real evidence and I doubt we ever find answers from our lost past. As Graham Hancock said best; we are a species with amnesia.

But here the description:

The creators of the Emmy Award Winning Mystery of the Sphinx present a revolutionary new film that examines one of our greatest mysteries: Man's origins. Hosted by Charlton Heston, this film challenges what we are being taught about human evolution and the rise of early civilization. A new breed of scientific investigators present startling evidence that the academic community has quietly ignored.

Includes the facts about this amazing mystery and a fascinating series of spellbinding interviews with researchers, scientists, and the best known, most credible authorities in the world today.

It was really more of a rhetorical question based on being kind of surprised to be seeing that video pop back up mixed with a little genuine curiosity about whether the poster thought there were valid scientific demonstrations contained within or if it was posted in jest. Honestly, after being around over 20 years now the video should come with some sort of warning or Consumer disclaimer.

Well, if there were, they made their tools from flint and carved spears from wood.
Don't sound very advanced to me.

They made their iPads out of animal skins and bones.

Yeah, an advanced civilization with no surviving trace of standardized parts and tools? It's a tough sell.

Oh, I hear ya. There's always a new generation coming up that has yet to sort the wheat from the chaff, though, eh?

It's the made-for-TV crockumentary generated by Cremo's book.

And no, we don't need to say more.

Silly when people assume advanced means techno advancement when really advanced means more complex than originally thought.

Atlantis' description is not far off from a description of the incan or preincan building marvels and cities, not to mention social advancement.

In fact, other than the numbers, it is exactly the description of Bronze Age Greece.

No, really, use it all you want. I've done better.
Sitchinistas held up pretty good, until the Sandinistas fell out of the news. Now nobody knows what I mean with it.

My favorite - I coined the phrase "the chronically astonished" for fringe pseudo believers.

"The chronically astonished".... That, my friend, is brilliant.

Well, perhaps they were able to fly around the world using the power of their minds, or rub crystals the right way to light their cities better than with electricity.

But none of that seems to have survived, either. At least with millions of machine-produced nuts and bolts and nails, there might be a few of those survive a good glacier scrubbing.
