Im a believer in there being advanced civilization 12500 years ago, but not in Antarctica. Even that long ago, with peoples capable of creating high quality masonry structures, Antarctica, wouldn't be a place anyone would risk the dangerous journey to get to, to live there. Think about how hard a time they had at Jamestown, those people had more tech than any advanced civilization would have had 12k years ago, and still failed, in a very habitable place.
Ice, fossils, penguins and interesting bacteria, are all youre gonna find on Antarctica.
Fair enough, but I think travelling to Antarctica would be trivial for cultures that could build structures like the pyramids at Giza. We aren't even capable of that level of precision today, so they were likely much more advanced than we are.
Ive never liked that trope that we cant get those levels of precision. I dont buy it. We just would never attempt doing anything that big and precise out of those materials, for obvious reasons. You want a perfectly oriented pyramid bigger than Giza? Go to Vegas. Its bigger, finished nicer, and has sharper edges. Its was built in less than 1/10th the amount of time with far less material. Itll will last even longer than 3000 years if it remains profitable.
The pyramid in Vegas is not a megalithic structure. Come on man, that comparison makes no sense.
