Oh yes, that 'advanced civilization' ... Didn't it - very conveniently - disappear into the oceans through 'cataclysmic events' ... How on Earth could I be so stupid ... ?

If the Ancient Egyptians were so 'precessionally advanced', then they must have had this knowledge for a very long time already, far PRECEEDING their oldest known artefacts ... which age invalidates your assumption.

'Your work FORCES us to RE-APPRAISE OUR KNOWN HISTORY' ...??? Only exhibit this kind of conceitedness when you have solid, unquestionably, scientifically founded evidence !!!

How far will your self-complacency drive you ? Pride will have a fall ...

You remind me of pseudo-archaeologist Semir Osmanagic, who has the pretention to 're-write human history' based on the delusional, non-existing 'Bosnian pyramids' ...
