Claim: The ancient rock carvings show modern-day technologies like computers, Astronaut suits and bicycles, etc. which suggests that our ancestors are more technologically advanced than us (SOCIAL MEDIA POST, 2023-03-10)
Evidence (2023-03-10): The carvings of the bicycle and astronaut are done recently after their inventions are made. The man sitting at a computer is not a carving, but an artwork made in 2006. Similarly, symbols in some other carvings have not yet been deciphered, and some of the associations with modern symbols like Wi-Fi, rockets and transformers, etc, could be due to visual similarities rather than actual representation as there is not enough evidence to support them. Hence the claim made in the post is MISLEADING.

Evidence (2024-10-07): We often think about our distant ancestors as primitive, equipped with the crudest of tools and a limited set of skills. But more often than not, we are terribly mistaken. Ancient civilizations are usually underestimated. History shows us that they repeatedly demonstrated incredible ingenuity and engineering prowess, even in the most distant past. From the stone age to the advent of metallurgy, these cultures thrived despite all. But still, certain ancient innovations and technologies remain a great enigma, as they cannot be replicated and fully understood. The mystery of ancient engineering challenges modern perception of the world’s first civilizations. Were they smarter than we think? [...] The exact process through which the Romans created such advanced art pieces remains a mystery, especially since nanotechnology was only understood by modern science in the 20th century. All this tells us that ancient artisans certainly possessed knowledge and techniques that were much more advanced than we first thought. [...] These ten incredible feats of ancient engineering are proof enough that our distant ancestors were much more sophisticated than we first thought. What is more, they definitely had an eye for art and magnificence and spared no effort or expense in order to create them.

Evidence (2013-08-16): Ancient North Americans gouged elaborate rock art into a heap of big boulders northeast of Reno, Nev., more than 10,000 years ago and perhaps 15,000 years ago. That makes the carvings the oldest known petroglyphs on the continent, according to a paper published in the Journal of Archaeological Science. [...] "I think it's really amazing that people that far back were creating such wonderful things," Benson says. [...] The new discovery shows that some of the earliest North Americans were surprisingly creative artists.

Evidence (2018-06-04): One famous piece of evidence is a photograph of an "astronaut" carved into a 16th-century Spanish cathedral in Salamanca. This cathedral, known as Catedral Nueva, has a strangely modern figure of what looks like a helmet-wearing astronaut on the façade of the entrance. [...] That is what Erich von Daniken posited in 1968 with his book Chariots of the Gods. This book championed the concept of the ancient astronaut theory and quickly became a best-seller, bringing the idea of art depicting extraterrestrials into the public consciousness. With the picture of the astronaut on an old cathedral, it might be tempting to believe that Erich von Daniken and the wild-haired guy were right all along.

Evidence (2019-07-23): 10 Remarkable Advanced Ancient Technologies Ahead Of Their Times [...] This amazing artifact clearly shows that our ancestors were far ahead of their time. In fact they were so advanced that they may even have been inventors of what we today call nanotechnology. This extraordinary cup is the only surviving complete example made from dichroic glass, which changes colour when held up to the light. When light is shone through the body of the cup it turns from opaque green to a glowing translucent red. The glass contains tiny amounts of colloidal gold and silver, which give it these unusual optical properties. Read more [...] The Antediluvians had technologies that matched our own; there are also serious indications that in certain areas they even possessed extraordinary knowledge, which has only hardly been nudged by our present-day science. Highly advanced hardening techniques of the ancients as well as ancient castings of large pieces were widespread in antiquity. Our ancestors were in possession of an extremely sophisticated scientific knowledge of metalworking from an earlier civilization and evidence of this knowledge was found in different parts of the world. China with a long history in metallurgy, was the earliest civilization that manufactured cast iron and some of the ancient Chinese feats of casting iron are so impressive as to be almost unbelievable.

Evidence (2023-10-30): Ancient technology that was centuries ahead of its time - Archaeologists repeatedly stumble upon artifacts that seem way too advanced for the times from which they originate. [...] We like to think of technological innovation as a gradual, steady, and fairly linear process. However, this is not necessarily the case. Archaeological excavations throughout the world reveal that, once in a while, ancient civilizations developed inventions that were decades if not centuries ahead of their time. It is sometimes said that these inventions rival or outmatch modern science. This, too, is a misconception. While many ancient super technologies — from Roman concrete to Damascus steel — were once lost, they have since been recreated by present-day researchers. Usually, any difficulty in recreating them stems from the lack of original instruction rather than an inability to comprehend the invention itself.

Evidence (2017-03-13): This is still hard for some skeptical writers and observers to believe. They insist that the primitive methods used by early modern and ancient Egyptian stone masons were not enough and that it must have been with more advanced equipment that the ancient Egyptians bored through solid granite. They argue that this is evidence that the ancient Egyptians and other civilizations were much more technologically sophisticated than is currently believed. While it is possible that more advanced technologies could have been developed by earlier civilizations then anticipated, there does not appear to be much reliable evidence to support this idea. If the ancient Egyptians did cut through granite with equipment such as electric drills or lasers or similarly advanced technology, these hewn granite slabs are the only evidence for it that we have. So far, there is no indisputable evidence of physical remains of electrical batteries or wires or anything else that would suggest that the ancient Egyptians used technology that was more advanced than what is expected for that period. [...] There is one case which some proponents of the idea that ancient Egypt was more advanced than contemporary archaeology would suggest - evidence that the ancient Egyptians used light bulbs. The temple of Hathor at the Dendera complex in Egypt contains several stone reliefs that appear to some observers to be a light bulb.

Evidence (2017-09-21): From radiocarbon dating in the 1940s to remote sensing techniques in the 1960s, archaeologists have long been early adopters of futuristic technologies — and this is still true. [...] The tech-enabled discoveries include some pretty amazing ones. For example, researchers seem to be on the verge of finding hidden chambers deep within the 4,500-year-old Great Pyramid of Giza, thanks to a new scanning technology that measures subatomic particles passing through the pyramid (the technique isn’t too different from the way doctors use X-rays to image our bones). [...] In all, these technologies and others are bringing archaeologists ever closer to understanding the lives of our ancestors. As Richards-Rissetto puts it, "We're at the cutting edge of trying to understand who we are as humans."

Evidence (2024-09-10): Pollution is threatening some of the world’s oldest rock carvings [...] Dating back tens of thousands of years, this cluster of one million images on the Burrup Peninsula is like an artistic encyclopedia, depicting human and environmental evolution. Carved into rocks are images of changing landscapes, tribal customs, and now-extinct species such as the Tasmanian tiger and fat-tailed kangaroo. These petroglyphs also reveal the mythology of one of the world’s oldest civilizations, Aboriginal Australians. [...] "The rock art tells the stories of evolution and are a biblical archive of our sacred ancient history," Cooper says. "They carry and hold a deep connection to Mother Earth."

Evidence (2024-09-10): The beginnings—Stone Age technology (to c. 3000 bce) [...] Herein is rooted the separation of the great world civilizations, for while the Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations spread their influence westward through the Mediterranean and Europe, those of India and China were limited by geographical barriers to their own hinterlands, which, although vast, were largely isolated from the mainstream of Western technological progress.
