What we do not know about Earth's history is a million times more than what we do know - or think we know.
This article is offered in an attempt to give you food for thought. Do not be surprised if it ends up shaking the very foundation of everything you thought you knew about the history of our world, and particularly civilization, itself.
It seems like every year new discoveries are being made about ancient civilizations that cannot be explained. Giant structures that we cannot duplicate even today, with all our engineering and heavy equipment. Myths and legends once shrugged off that now appear to be based on facts. And the current archaeological and paleo "sciences" seem to change daily with new discoveries.
The most important concept to grasp is that there is a vast amount of time unaccounted for, and current science, lacking any theories or evidence, simply dismiss all that time as "inconsequential".
How much time are we talking about?
It is currently believed life on Earth began 541 million years ago - the start of the Cambrian period. In the 541 million years since, that life has progressed from single-cell amoeba swimming in the "primordial soup" to landing on the moon and building functional robots. Anything before that - a whopping 4.1 BILLION years - is the "blank" period where current science said the earth was in the process of "forming" and nothing was happening in the hood as far as "life" is concerned.
I say, "Not so fast!"
Even allowing a billion or so years for "the firmament", the "waters" etc. to form and Earth to settle in its orbit around Sol, that still leaves enough time for life to emerge and reach the moon at least 6 times BEFORE our era.
Even allowing for a million or so years between them, life could have begun six times, progressed to a space age, gets destroyed and it starts all over again. And in one or more of those periods, the prime life form may not have even been human as we know it. It could have been similar to us, but it could just as easily been reptilian, aquarian or even avian. A lot of glyphs around the globe portray such creatures.
And though it may seem far-fetched (like many things that later turn out to be true), one of those may have been a life form that could no longer survive in the changing environment and had developed advanced space travel. For example, the Earth sports six supervolcanos, any one of which is capable of destroying life on Earth. We also know that large meteorites could do the same. Either could leave the environment changed for very long periods - a "short" ice age lasted 7,000 years; long ones have lasted millions of years.
If that civilization had achieved advanced space travel via wormholes, or warping time, they would have left Earth in search of a new home. They might even make space, itself, their home, traveling the universe in search of knowledge and "seeding" life on barren worlds. They might even become the "Gods" of those worlds.
If any of this is even remotely true, it would almost be a certainty they would keep an eye on us, perhaps even helping us along in our own quest. That would explain the UFO phenomenon. It would also explain the "greys". Humanoids living in space for millennia would spend most of their lives without sun or true gravity causing evolutionary changes.. The eyes would enlarge, to make the most of seeing in low or no light environments. The skin would pale, then turn grey. The muscles would atrophy, making them small and thin.
And there is also the possibility that it was they - our predecessors - who "seeded" life here on Earth 541 million years ago.
I do not contend any of this actually occurred. What I am saying is it (and much more) is possible. It certainly would explain a lot of what is currently unexplained...
