Bit of a rant here, but I didn’t spend two and a half years, and an undisclosed amount of money to get a Masters Degree to let this sort of shit slide.
“Star Forts” ARE NOT remnants of a pre-mudflood super civilization. We have documentation as to when, and by whom they were designed and built. Often we have the original blueprints, we have treatises written by the architects describing how they were designed and built. And, I must make this perfectly clear, we know why they were built. They are not magical space batteries, they are not celestial sign points aligned with the cosmos, they are not waypoints for spaceships. They are fortifications, designed for warfare, built AFTER the 1453 fall of Constantinople. They are built on geometric principles because geometry was a big thing in Early Modern Europe. Their remains are found all over the world because Europeans went all over the world, and they took their architecture with them. They are ruins because that’s what happens to buildings that are not maintained, and they were not maintained because military technology passed them by. The mental gymnastics required to come up with these theories necessitates a complete disregard for the past and the people who study it with even a basic level of competence.
Okay, I think I’m done. I’ve left several page length comments trying to debunk this sort of shit on YouTube, but FUCK I am still soooooo angry right now
*You tell them what it was, a fireplace, and presumably prove it with some sort of evidence like showing them literally any other fireplace.*
"Truly it will remain a mystery and is clearly evidence of a lost culture covered up by nefarious forces. It's obviously the top of a lost Tartarian temple. A beacon that could be seen for miles around when the glowing Tartarian prayer-force of the devout worshippers flowed through it before the great Mud Flood--"
*You remember that Pennsylvania did actually have a great mud flood of sorts, but by that point you've already disposed of the evidence and established an ironclad alibi so oops. No jury in the land would convict you once anyone mentioned the word "Tartarian." Had to be done, heck, they'll probably give you a medal.*
Este es un antiguo mapa de Tartaria, un posible imperio antiguo cuyos conocimientos avanzados habrían sido borrados del canon histórico. Esta hipótesis cuenta con sus defensores y detractores, pero nos lleva a cuestionarnos: ¿Y si la humanidad sufrió un 'Reseteo'? Desentraña esta teoría y cuéntanos qué opinas.
