Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that the entire technology advancement in science field started from 1600's, and the nuclear bomb was created
by roughly 1940's. So it took us humans suffering from wars, famine, tyrants etc about 350 years to create a nukes. So, why couldn't have the
ancient civilizations created it.
We know of a Einstein from Germany, not of another genius from Atlantis or India or wherever. That doesn't mean that there wern't any, that
means we didn't know from the records.
I can't think of any government who would want to popularize a mass killer. Remember in those days, you were scared of a superior existing forces
like GOD. Now there is CNN, BBC, MSNBC etc, it those days the king was everything. You have almost no authority or power against the king.
The possibly of ancient civilization creating a nuke is not very remote nor very easy. There is always a chance that someone might have built it.
You are not always smarter than your ancestors.
