I buy into there being a civilization (or maybe a couple/few) that used that location over a period of time and built it up in layers (not a new or ground breaking theory). And I'm even OK with pushing timelines. But I want to see good, scientific evidence supporting or backing up those claims. A little scientific disagreement is not a problem, and is to be expected, and probably healthy. But there doesn't seem to be much on this site, which I would expect.
There’s no doubt there have been human like critters in the area for a long time. Land bridge to Australia, etc. Flores man. Actual stone ruins in Sulawesi. What I take issue with is the ‘advanced civilization’ part.
