I think it just goes to show that we still know very very little about the Earth's history and the history of our own civilizations.
Much of history is purely interpretation and speculation examining these old places based off what still exists and trying to guess what happened.
What we never get to see are things that no longer exist so it heavily skews our perceptions and we're just left with duct taping fragments of facts to create theories.
It's really fascinating! The world's such a big and ancient place. Tons of mysteries out there. Ancient groups all over the world made such megalithic things and no one seems to know how they did it. Personally I think the technology they had access to was way more than simple hand tools and not many historians consider that possibility. And there may be other civilizations we don't know once existed.
Quoting: Rubysage That's exactly right Rubysage and here's why.
Our planet has endured many solar micro-nova cycles. This in effect resets us to the Stone Age over and over like Groundhogs Day movie - except over tens of thousands of years.
The roots of our human tree go back 3 million years and in the last 1.5 million years solidified into the last 4 species. Cro-magnon was the last alteration, before US.
We hypothesize that it was the planet hopping advanced civilization from the 5th planet that jump started our DNA and built the great megalithic works. Miners with adavanced technology and we see their works in a lot of cave places that bear no answer for us in the last 40,000 years.
Archaic mining operations turned into elegant works or is that how they mined?

We know they were extremely talented and showed us such.

The strong implication is that it was the demise of their planet that set into motion our solar micro-nova cycles, meaning they were not time impeded like we are now for technological advancements.
How much more advanced were they than us - one million years??
