Did Ancient People Around The World Have Better Technology Than We Do Now?

Question

Some scientist beliveve that what the ancient knew we cannot even match now.There surgery techniques there arcitecture,their astronomy skills their matamatics or their science.There are many things that we have no records of how they did them ,yet we have proof of them doing them but don't understand how .

Answer 1

NO

Answer 2

Although I give full credit to the many amazing achievements of past cultures, I completely disagree with your statement. No, we are far more technologically advanced than ancient people were. If we for some reason wanted to build a pyramid today, we could, but there's no way in Hell the Egyptians could have landed on the moon, built faster than sound aircraft, or built deep sea submersibles.

Answer 3

Traditional historians and scientists who are guided by typical and rudimentary linear models of the progression of Humankind do not accept this notion. However, you are more likely correct in this assumption than what narrow-minded traditionalists are willing to admit. I highly recommend that you read the monumental book, "Forbidden Archaeology: The Hidden History of the Human Race” by Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson. This superb research of archaeological anomalies that do not neatly fit into the Evolutionists' paradigm is earth-shattering, to say the least. The data clearly points to several global technocultures that have existed in our primordial past predating the embryonic stages of our ancient history, which in reality appears to be a post-catastrophic period, a Neobarbarism, that emerges "after" the global annihilation of a former worldwide technoculture. The evidence appears to support that human advance civilizations are periodic and cyclic, and the zenith of these former cultures is subject to a discontinuity event of a periodic nature, e.g. mass celestial bombardment from an unknown extra solar agent precipitating an extinction level event, a cosmo-cataclysm.

Answer 4

Hi,

I tend to agree with you.

To give you some idea what ancient engineers did and did not do, can I refer you to a book called "Ancient Engineers" by L Sprague D. Camp. It is an old book and not up to date, but it will give you a thorough and humorous overview of ancient engineering skills, some of which are very advanced and some of which are not. It really is a good read.

Hope this helps,

Answer 5

No. Everything that our ancestors could do is well understood. There are many, many excellent books on the history of technology. The few "scientists" who believe what you have described are not actual scientists, but have illogical agendas that are not based on facts.

Answer 6

Without the progressive turn of events, scientists could not and can not match the history of our ancestors.
Science is now a world of copy and improve in a big way.
But it will always be that way.

Answer 7

You are deluded. I know of no scientist that thinks any such thing.
