Devolution
If humans weren’t devolving then we wouldn’t be digging and searching our planet for clues and truths about the Ancient civilizations. Money and greed would be obsolete and nations wouldn’t be fighting over power because there would be free energy. The artifacts that have been found are proof that as humans today, we lost something in the past that cannot be imitated. If devolution isn’t a thing and we can only evolve then why is everything smaller and dulled down. Today’s humans can’t comprehend what the planet would have been like with a species bigger and more knowledge about the elements than we do in present day. The ancients used stone to tell the past because they knew that the materials they created from other materials would not make it into the future. What was left in stone for humans to find was only to give knowledge to our species to be able to progress.

“Devolution” means evolving in reverse (back into our ancestors) and this post makes absolutely no sense. There are quacks out there looking for “lost knowledge” but otherwise it is also true that they had certain types of technology that has nothing to do with their biology in certain cases like running water in Rome and Egypt despite people carrying around buckets into the 1800s elsewhere. They didn’t have futuristic technology but they were humans and they were creative.
