Why were the ancient megalithic monuments built?

Moving big rocks around, and stacking them on top of eachother
was The High Technology of that Era.

The timeline goes back farther Et Sano, all the way to 31,754 B.C.

Unfortunately scripture compresses the timelines. Just a fact.

Thankfully we don't have to rely solely on that book for time and dates.

Sumerian King's List

The Sumerian's through history are defined as the first of our species to move from cave dwellings to cohabitating in functional cities. From the Sumerian society we are gifted systems of Educations, Banking, Religion, Government, Judicial policing, Mythologies etc.

From the annals of their history, bequeathed us written on a stone tablet is the amazing tale of the fabled Sumerian King's List.

The Royal Sumerian list begins before a great deluge with a list of 'Eight Kings' who ruled before the mythical flood. The gospel of Genesis records that between Adam and Noah also existed 'Eight Generations'. In comparison the gospel of Genesis equates a global deluge tale recounting the story of the great flood and Noah’s ordained survival efforts, which mirrors a conveying of the older Sumerian epic of Gilgamesh story.

Both pre-deluge histories offer a human time line with a questionable age length. In addition, the Sumerian list submits an extensively long reign to the first eight recorded Sumerian rulers.

History offers no conclusive archaeological excavations of confirmation in truth of the Sumerian's eight kings longevity or existence. However due to the history it presents 'after the deluge' that has been verified, the list is seen as an institution of divine origin of royalty.

“After the kingship descended from heaven, the kingdom was dwelling in Eridu. In Eridu, Alulim became king; He reigned for 28,800 years”. The kingdoms are measured in “will”, a period that corresponds to 3600 years, and “ner”, units worth 600, revealing a series of incredibly long Kingdoms:

Alulim of Eridu: 8 sars (28,800 years)
Alalgar of Eridu: 10 sars (36,000 years)
En-Men-Ana Lu-Bad-tibira: 12 sars (43,200 years)
En-Men-Gal-Ana Bad-tibira: 8 sars (28,800 years)
Bad-tibira Dumuzi, the shepherd: 10 sars (36,000 years)
En-Sipad-Zid-Ana LARAG: 8 sars (28,000 years)
En-Men-Dur-Ana Zimbir: 5 and 5 ners sars (21,000 years)
Ubara-Tutu Shuruppak: 5 and 1 ner sars (18,600 years)

“After the Flood wiped out everything and the kingship was descended from heaven, the kingdom was dwelling in Kish”.

Calculating the first eight of Sumerian names dedicated on the list from the time when kingship descended from heaven” equates to a total reign of 240,400 years.

The Royal Sumerian list as with all mystifying history, is subject to different interpretations rarely simplified in explanation. By viewing the Sumerian King's list through open modern knowledge..ascertaining that a King is indeed the head of his Kingdom, which is the reference to the head of a civilization, we can see the Sumerian age is patterned after our known science records to the bi-pedal species known as Homo-Neanderthalensis. King and Kingdom - empowerment dominance of species to planet.

The age identification of Cromagnon man appearing somewhere around 39,000 years ago bypasses the shepherd Bad-tibira Dumuzi's and Alalgar of Eridu's 36,000 years falling in line with the 12 Sars of En-Men-Ana Lu-Bad-tibira's 43,200 years of the Sumerian Royal List history.

Title and Species, President and Nation, King and Kingdom. Each Sumerian age of the Royal list is similar in equivalence to a growth-age before our species mutates to it's next level. Hence a specific name given as reference to each age category, such as ours (if added to the Kings List) may possibly be known as Hu-Man Terra Firma; King Humanitism.

Through this unique view by connecting the age of a Sumerian King's age-length to mankind's own, we can then understand the Sumerian Royal's list is a list of past civilizations and not one person or family dynasty. A list of eight generations prior to a deluge also hidden in scripture. Simplified, the Sumerian Royal List combined with scriptures Genesis genetics indicates the first settlements created on Earth. thereby listing the reigns of Earth's original organic first 'true blood' humanoid bi-pedal species prior to the devastation of the Deluge.

Once realized, our information comes from scripture...however

scripture makes Earth out to be small, really small.

When it talks about four rivers and seven mountains - are they really talking about four oceans and seven continents?

CUZ, if they are, then there's a whole 'nother story to be had.

And we know that Genesis says that the Tower of Babel civilization was global.

Is it time for a new understanding??

Or...

It was highly advanced past ancient HUMAN civilizations trying to leave some sort of marker/evidence they were here, in light of being wiped out by some natural disaster.

In other words, we are hundreds of thousands of years old, but have to start out as farmers for basic survival every 10-20,000 years or so.

If you have ever seen the last episodes of "life after people" you will know that not even Skyscrapers, cars, anything made out of metal,anything made out of plastic, exists being left out in the elements for only 10,000 years.

Only stone structures, and some machines/tools buried deep survive.

Not sure what you're smokin Vivian but it isn't helping your history.

This is Stonehenge circa 1877..

King James had Inigo Jones survey Stonehenge's center in the early 1600's and later in that century John Aubery investigated it was well.

Authors and explorers have written about the sites you mention long before the start of the 20th century.
