The 6-7th century has no connection to 500-10k years ago. However, there could be hundreds of reasons why that ceramic is found in the ocean. I have my own theory, of course. https://phys.org/news/2011-01-cretan-tools-year-old-sea.am
Big point is that ocean travel is the norm, not the exception, and always has been.
I don't believe everything is about travel, but also about geological changes and natural disasters. Have you heard of the theory that we are like a disease on Earth, growing like cancerous metastases, and at some point, the planet's immune response tries to wipe us out? https://phys.org/news/2011-01-cretan-tools-year-old-sea.amp https://image.nostr.build/c3b17739197226cc109136330d1ccb688a1435ad95942a5fb0a4be070a05c5e0.jpg
Yes, and it's tempting to believe. It seems to me more likely that a delusional humanity is merely experiencing the consequences of its actions.
do you think the ancient authors were as delusional as I am?
Harder to get published back then, so doubtful :p
But not impossible
True, Revelations got published, and some of that is close to your level :p
don't say this as a joke because it hurts me 😒
Did you publish about your ceramic finds?
Religious books are symbolism not literality.
This is one of the better conversations I’ve been involved in. Grateful for this
