RE: What If There Was Another Intelligent Species Before Humans?
As nature regains control after the effects of a civilisation end. It would wipe out or at least deeply hide the traces of an intelligent civilisation which makes it sort of impossible for a later civilisation to uncover the earlier one.
Another thought; An earlier civilisation might have been more intelligent than humans that they hadn’t affect the nature greatly which would left nothing to discover.
I agree with your first assessment but if an earlier civilisation didn't even have any effects on nature, we could still find their technological remains no matter how eco friendly, unless time did away with all those.
The forces of nature are great when it strikes. Tsunamis, volcanoes, hurricanes for millions of years can eradicate everything no matter how significant it is. Nature also wipe away what is not belong to it just like the human body if got the chance.
Perfectly said! Nature is just too powerful and after millions of years of huge changes, nothing would remain of any civilisation that could have existed once.
