Résumé
Human history is often told as a steady ascent from primitive tools to advanced technology. But what if that narrative is only a fragment of a far deeper story?Deep Time and the Fragility of Memory explores one of the most provocative scientific thought experiments of our era: not whether lost civilizations existed, but whether the geological record would even allow us to know. Drawing from archaeology, geology, climate science, and philosophy, the book examines how tectonic recycling, erosion, and planetary change erase material traces across millions of years.
Through rigorous yet accessible analysis, it presents the Silurian hypothesis and asks a humbling question: if an industrial species had risen and vanished before us, would any clear evidence remain? This is not speculation, but a reflection on the limits of knowledge and the fragile nature of memory in deep time.
