Much of modern science was known in ancient times. Robots and computers were a reality long before the 1940s. The early Bronze Age inhabitants of the Levant used computers in stone. The Greeks in the 2nd century BC invented an analogue computer known as the Antikythera mechanism. An ancient Hindu book gives detailed instructions for the construction of an aircraft –ages before the Wright brothers. Where did such knowledge come from?
The plagues of ignorance, hate and war, whether in the name of religion or power, have vexed human progress. We continue to worship idols and condemn ourselves to repeat this shameful history on the path of extinction.
I totally agree. The loss of the great ancient libraries was a tragedy. The library of Alexandria was burnt by Christian fanatics. SLowly over time, the true facts will be revealed. However the myths indicate the truth of some events that actually occurred but could not be interpreted correctly as our knowledge was very limited at the time.
Even while acknowledging some scientific thinking and progress on certain subjects, it is not quite right to say that much of modern science was known in ancient times. We have evidence of the earliest human beings and even the dinosaurs. Had there been robots, computers and aeroplanes and the like in ancient times, some evidence would have definitely been there. Please don't mix mythology and science. Mythology is beautiful in its own way and shows the beauty of human imagination but do not equate that with science..
Spoons were introduced to European tables by the Romans, and they never lost currency. The idea that spoons did not enter common usage until the late 16th century (the time of widespread adoption of forks) is completely without foundation
The picture of mohenjo-daro lists a “stupa” mound. A stupa (also spelled dagoba (like Yoda’s planet)) is an artificial mound built to house relics of the Buddha or other venerated religious figure. Since this one was built approximately 1900 years before the birth of siddharta gautama, labeling it as the “stupa hill” is a misidentification. I suspect this is actually the structure labeled in other sources as the “citadel.” Please correct me if I’m wrong
solo un piccolo appunto,se posso,ma la biblioteca di Alessandria non ando bruciata da neo cristiani invasati che dopo aver ucciso barbaramente Ippazia bruciarono tutto su ordine di quel "personaggio" che poi è diventato SAN CIRILLO ?????.......una mia curiosità,grazie-

In the end, we can mostly just speculate. But they are fun speculations.

Lol if only you knew the real history, not all those books and scrolls were lost, you just need to know where to look
