A weaponised comet, that hits the middle of an ancient high tech society seem premeditated. That means a random event or space travel?

I dont buy these ancient epoch tales of todays tech. We'd have unearthed endless bits of milled stainless steel, titanium, etc, by now. I would have myself even!
Actually that assessment would be wrong. Metals that would be in the open would decay easily by the ravages of nature, meanwhile stone would last far longer for tens of thousands of years. In fact, stone would be the only surviving proof of such civilizations after thousands, or tens of thousands of years, because metals would have rusted, decayed and the winds would have carried away most of the rusted metal dust.
Really? Because here's a piece of copper that dates to the time period being discussed - 7k ybp, around the time when this so-called "destroyed city" (which is still standing) was flourishing.
Also, what makes wood more resistant to decay that metal? I mean, these wooden spears are around 400,000 years old. That's older than Homo Sapiens. We found [I]them[/I], didn't we?

What about the synthetics required..
Diamond drills, tungsten steel and all the random composite and ceramic stuff..
Could we have had multiple early Bronze Age civilizations?? Absolutely..
But one as or more advanced than us??
No chance
What diamond drill and tungsten steel would this be?

So we can find man-made tools over 1 million years old, but we can't find any remnants of what had to have been a civilization at least as advanced as ours, from 7000 years ago? No screws, lawnmowers, rubber or plastics, no weapons, bullets, rotors or engines or any of 10s of thousands of man-made objects that would be simple to find in droves (let alone structures and buildings and highways and such), if such a civilization every existed?
They must have had a heck of a recycling plan, that's all I know!

Humans with brain capacity identical to modern day humans have been around 40,000 years. We only know what happened back to 4500 years with Sumerian culture, and perhaps China. We know there was an ice age around 12,000 years ago, and that there is evidence for a major radiological event like a nearby supernova that was enough to blast the North American continent with high-energy particles.
It is possible that there was an explosion outside earth, whether on mars or a space station, which swept over the earth.

In order to build this
a Society has to be more Advance then just the Bronze Age
let alone mathematical skills and and advance Tools
there is not not one Pre History building progress in advancement on Puma Punku nor Tiwanaku
To me from the Old World
The new World
looks like a Mixture of a Iraq/Iran Ziggurat and Egyptian/ Step pyramid
Background radiation @ Tiahuanaco = 21
Background radiation @ Puma Punku = 90
So imagine the surprise of some people when they dug up a skull with an almost definite bullet wound, if modern there would be no question that indeed that was the cause of death but there is a problem the skull in question belonged to a primitive hominid which has been touted as a possible ancestor of humanity and is similar to an early neanderthal but not as large brained and is dated at between 125000 years to 300000 years so roughly in the range of a quarter of a million years old.

Firstly, the world didn't fall into the "Bronze Age" at (say) 2000 BC. Each area got into the Bronze Age at different time periods (so the Americas don't actually get a Bronze Age.) You're not actually looking at the timeframe of those structures.
let alone mathematical skills and and advance Tools
You don't actually need a lot of math for it - just addition and subtraction (which any culture that can count can do) - and a standard "ruler" (length determinate) for each site.

"Pre history" like "Bronze Age" means different things in different areas. "Prehistoric America" is "before Columbus" which sounds really old but means "before 1490." So a lot of Pre-Columbian things are only 700 years old. "Pre-history" means "before written history of the area." So Egyptian prehistory is 3,000 BC but Italian/Roman prehistory is "anything before 800 BC."

If you ignore the floor plans (some of those are solid, others are hollow) and the actual shape and construction (the slope of the sides) and so forth... but if you take time to learn about the architecture of that time and that civilization, pretty soon you can pick out the differences easily and wonder how anyone can mistake them for the other.

That makes no sense, given that they're at the same location.
While we do not understand today, the H-Blocks must have been designed to interlock. The surrounding slabs to the H-Blocks are in some cases single piece slabs weighing close to 200 tonnes each in their carved status, and they were quarried at the other end of a mountain range some 15 miles away,
The radiation found in some of the darker stones is at least 7 times the expected normal readings, and when you place a compass at each stone you receive very different compass readings, indicating these stones are highly magnetized along with being radioactive. In the structures of H-Blocks, at a distance of 6 inches, one stone points North and the other stone compass reading points South. So each stone is affected by magnetism adversely.

In addition to the foundations of ancient huts, the archaeologists found iron tools and pottery, plus 15 giant tombs – the capacious size of which means their intended inhabitants must have been well-established individuals.

Plato wasn't prone to bull#,so if he says their was an Island in the Atlantic, surrounded by a continent the other side, and if he says the greeks stopped the invasion, then everyone suffered a calamity which left the Greeks back in the stone age, then Linear A and Linear B tends to support his statement.
Already explained, as iron falls from the sky.

Well, the fact that this city is 7,000 years old, and they found iron tools in it is evidence that there were civilizations that had iron tools thousands of years before the "bronze age".
Here is a link and excerpt about that discovery from sciencealert.

The earliest bronze age civilization is estimated to have started in 3,300 BC in the near east, but this discovery proves the three age "stone-bronze-iron" system is wrong. It means in Egypt the ancients were already using iron tools almost 2,000 years before the earliest bronze age culture.
but then the whole would show clear sign's of partial healing or pitting related to rampant infection would it not surely.

Wolfenz - what im talking about Byrd those Structures are more advanced more complex then the bronze age especially what you have to admit... from a society ( INCA ) that only has KNOT Roping for a written Language at least the Mayans had some kind of Hieroglyphic writing
Wolfenz- ya you do when its a precise Accuracy down too the Millimeter which the Ruins of Puma Punku had Show many Times and even hard reach around Angles
there is not not one Pre History building progress in advancement on Puma Punku nor Tiwanaku
- I Meant previews building advancements , like the Egyptians had Step Pyramids to the Giza Pyramids
the Progress in Stages in Improvements NaDa nothing ! there is no other Structure with Designs like what is shown in Puma Punku there is Only three places that I see that has Similarity and that is in Rome/Greece and Axon Ethiopia And Egypt and all have the Poured Metal Bracket System to hold large Stone Together ,
yet in all there are Oceans Apart. do you refute that ?
Wolfenz- LOL.. The Temples of Cambodia and Guatemala are the Same type of Structure and there Temples like that in Indonesia also .. I see the Out Line the Outside ,
as I said before Byrd ,, if you follow the Path from Sumeria/Egypt India // Southwest Asia Cambodia Vietnam , Thailand // Belize // Indonesia, to Peru and Up through Central America and Mexico you can see the progress and Similarities and im not the Only One here there are other on the net that thinks the same ,
Wolfenz - of course it does , if you think of Puma Punku is way Older and the Tiahunaco is Newer
its 2132.55 feet aka close to a half a mile apart
and the Stone are originally from the explosion as to Note different type of Stone's
and not the same as the rest of the Structured Stones , as in the Darker Stones
In the Town Near By those same type of Stones that were used on the Old Church
and a couple of housing buildings have Magnetic properties as they were once part of the Puma Punku Ruins
brought over to be use to build the town
