Was "Jacob's Ladder" a 65million year old Space Elevator?

Was "Jacob's Ladder" a 65million year old Space Elevator?
Jacobs Ladder = Space Elevator

it is curious fact that most of the main ancient sites associated with Gods such as the ancient Mayan sites in the Yucatan Peninsular, Angkor Wat and the Moai Stones, all lie on the same like that runs around the Earth in a style identical to a NASA orbital path.

For a space elevator to work, a single cable is not safe - if it sheared, there is no hope for the passengers, but with two cables, there would be a risk of cables wearing on each other, requiring regular crossbars to hold them separate, producing a look like a giant ladder - and, indeed, this matches with the Biblical description.

It would seem as if a geostationary high orbit would be necessary for such an elevator, but by trading short term limited orbital decay (that could be countered swiftly afterwards) in exchange for a short run (single return trip) use, and by anchoring it a geostationary object, it would be possible for the actual "top floor" of the elevator to orbit at little more than 100 miles above the surface.

As a low lying orbital station would need a vast ring of fixed geostationery anchor points, those places under the anchor points would clearly be seen to ancient man as places where Gods always appear,,, It is interesting to note that...

- Atlas Mountains, Morrocco (On orbital path) - Greek and Roman legends stated that the God Atlas kept the sky up from there, Jacob claimed to see the ladder to heaven there and Early Christians were convinced that when Jesus would return, he would land on earth there first.
- Ararat (on orbital path) - Numerous things in numerous religions have Gods etc appearing on Ararat, making it for no apparent reason a deeply religious mountain.

..So, if Aliens in Ancient times built a Space Elevator, orbiting at about 100 miles up, under a ring of geostationary anchor points, when did they construct it?

With no atmosphere, such a Space elevator system could remain in place for a staggering amount of time with no decay, particularly is solar etc powered systems readjusted any small decay in orbit.

It is interesting to note that the Ground Zero for the blast which killed the dinosaurs off is also on this orbital path. Could be, that fed up with having mining engineers having their heads bitten off by a T Rex, the some alien corporation found it cheaper just to lower an elevator car down to the surface with a 500megaton nuke onboard?

not if it appeared overnight.

but what really happened certainly wasn't the "traditional" interpretation

Yes. The machine we geneticly programmed ourselfs to use mentally to teleport ourselfs throughout the galaxy millions of years ago has long been destroyed. But our ability to climb the ladder has not... :)
