Can you elaborate? Before we were hunter & gatherers, we were monkeys, before that there were dinosaurs, before that there were one-cell organisms.
If there were human civilizations a million years ago or before that, there would be significant evidence of cities, just as there is evidence of dinosaurs, no?

It's hard to put into words because it goes against everything I know or believe, and yet there's this little thought in my head that won't go away: "this cannot be the first time." Normally with UFOs or other sorts of "pseudo-reality" I would just write the thought off as an interesting weirdness of our world, but for some reason I can't. Might just be a personal failing ;)
