It very well could be or under water and extremely difficult to excavate. As I brought up earlier though, civilization can only come about with a surplus of food so domesticating animals and plants would surely be the key to this. DNA of domesticated plants and animals should show a hot spot where they originated I believe, I'm not sure if this has been found.
Plants would need to be domesticated and I'm wondering if tracing the DNA of staples like rice, wheat, barley and other grains could give us a family tree and point us locations of origin. That could give us a clue as to where to look.
No, I can't explain it. But since I'm not making the claim the burden of proof is not on me. This is, again, heading towards argument from ignorance territory.
Yea, I think that ancient sites such as the Great Pyramid, Teotihuacan, Gobekli Tepe, the Kailasa Temple, etc. are a good indication that humanity has likely experienced a cataclysmic reset event in our past.
I've read a couple of Hancock's books (The Mars Mystery, Magicians of the Gods), and have seen those podcasts. I don't necessarily agree with him on every interpretation but I think the guy does fantastic work exploring ancient sites, which is something I find interesting and enjoyable to read about.
Good documentary on The Great Pyramid:
It's not like the theory doesn't make sense at all. If a high civilization was wiped out by a cataclysm over 10k years ago, what do people expect to be left remaining other than perhaps some enigmatic megalithic sites?

I can accept an "advanced" society being wiped out by a cataclysmic event. I don't believe we have enough evidence to conclude it did happen, but I'm fine with the idea that it could have.
Suggesting this civilization had technology equivalent to the 18th or 19th century is, respectfully, absurd.
He based that on maps of the world that may be derivative of pleistocene age maps. Read fingerprints of the gods and argue with him. I'm not making that claim. Just fyi, Antarctica is on maps (that people interpret differently) from the 13th century. Why is a continent we didn't discover until 1820 on 13th century maps? And why is it depicted with specificity and without modern glaciation.
It's a matter of interpretation, but it's pretty convincing if true. See the mercator projections or the piri reis map in question.

I don't think that is right with plants. Plants history isn't the same as anything else. The rate plant species go extinct, and newly evolve is insane.
We basically have no idea what plant species were like that long ago, unless through some freak natural process it was somehow saved, in amber, or some other process.
So if they had agriculture, they could live, and build a society.

Well I'm not sure about this guys particular theory but there is evidence for lost empires and reset periods. You have things like old maps showing huge empires we've never heard. In America for example you have large buildings and neighborhoods buried right underneath our streets in some places. The topic of orphan trains is very strange and would be explained by a reset of some kind. Theres other factoids I've come across that are slipping my mind. So I think it's very possible.
I also tend to think ancient civilizations had advanced technology not necessarily in the form of machines but in the form of understanding how to manipulate the elements. Like using sound to move things for example.
With all of that said I don't think anyone has presented a real flushed out theory yet. And your guess is as good as Grahams.
Dude, you're claiming he's just making things up. He has specifically written thousands of pages with thousands of peer reviewed citations in them. It may be a circumstantial case but you calling him a "crackpot" is just ignorant.
So at the same time they invented wheat domestication they were building super technical series' of 20 ton beam structures with proper astronomical alignments? How far back are we gonna go here? There is 50 times as much under the ground unexcavated at Gobekli tepe as has already been excavated. Yes, it's 50 times the size of stone henge...6k years earlier. And way more sophisticated.

Expect to find? Why would we expect to find 15k year old coins and swords in this area? Whoever built GT didn't need coins and swords to develop the site but to develop something like a steam engine a civilization is going to need a lot more than what current scientists believe ancient man had. And so far there has been no convincing evidence/artifacts found that will support this idea.
The copper age came before the iron for a few reasons but mainly because copper melts at a lower point than iron and is easier to work with. Once copper was developed iron came later when man learned how to smelt at higher temperatures. These discoveries are all built on top of each other and it is extremely unlikely that a group would learn how to smelt iron before copper.
