I'm trying to come up with a decent timeline but there's too many pieces missing. Out-of-place items are poorly dated and they go back an astonishing 600 million years (a bell-shaped vase found in Massachusetts in 1851) with items found mostly in coal deposits. And that's throwing out the biggie 2.8 billion year old grooved spheres found in Africa. Maybe we can mark that up as E.T. littering...
I'm speaking generally about school knowledge. I believe in Evolution but I also believe it to be incomplete with lots of gaps. I also see dates being pushed back all the time to try and account for different (public) discoveries.

The majority of the world that was and the majority of civilizations that existed before the glacial ice and snow melted were located along the coast lines near the oceans.Just like they are now.
If a still unknown cycle of the Sun caused a rapid melting of the worlds glacial ice and snow 10,000 to 20,000 years ago,that would certainly account for the flood and deluge stories that were passed down through history and are still being told about all over the world...
Theres nothing stopping the sun from suddenly raising or lowering it's power output,unexpectedly freezing over or boiling away most of the earths oceans,rivers and lakes and most of life upon the earth,in the air and water as well.At least we would have 8 minutes warning time before that sun shift started to effect us,the time it takes the suns light to reach the earth...

Some of the ancient flood accounts may or may not be talking about rivers overflowing,but most ancient deluge accounts are surely talking about the ocean rising,from rapidly melting glacial snow and ice and from tsunamis slamming into and overrunning the coastal areas,where most people lived and still do live,too close to the vast and unforgiving ocean...

The problem is and what a few of you fail to see is if we go back 500k years man stops being man...if we go back a few million years it is not even homo, if we go back 10 million or more I don't know what it would be that you think of as the last advance race.

Not to mention all the cities and ruins, even pyramids found off the major shorelines around the world. Certainly suggests changing land masses, coastlines and water.
I even see strange pyramidal looking tops to mountains here in BC, as evidence that alot of mountain building took place, and there is some interesting speculations that could go into the pyramid shapes, and even further.
Obviously what they label as "cavemen" especially neanderthral, seems to me to be a bit misleading.

Has anyone carbon-dated them? I doubt it. They'd be afraid to. Of course you'd need to have one first to carbon-date it, eh!

Fossilized seashells have been found over 5 miles high on Mt. Everest! Which means any advanced civilizations that existed millions of years ago,within the distant forgotten past,will have been 99% crushed overturned and buried. All that would remain of them are the ocasional strange "out of time" artifacts that are found and quickly supressed and ridiculed...
