History becomes more interesting as you age. Yes, it’s time to say that.

Reading some ancient texts I feel quite convinced that we aren’t the first civilization and there is a proof of a reset after every few thousand years (approximate 12,000/24,000).

Further, Joe Rogan’s pod with Michael Button – where Michael talks about how quickly our cities would disappear (entirely) to the elements if left alone. Probably in a hundred years or so.

An article in Flipboard came up – Mayan, Greek, India, Egyptian technology of construction, metallurgy – way ahead of tech that exists even now.

Recommend reading – Bibek Debroy’s translation of the Mahabharat – an onerous undertaking – but well worth it, if you’re interested.
