I'm skeptical about the eastern rockies. There was a pre-clovan civilization there before the younger dryas event that was entirely wiped out. What could wipe out all the people in a huge area all at once and give them no warning or time to move? Idk. It wasn't invasion, and there were no survivors.

that could have been because of shifting from equatorial to polar position tho. they wouldn't have been prepared for it. even if the place doesn't get washed away the changed temperatures will probably kill off most food sources growing and living there.
also it's telling that there is evidence, that wasn't washed away or buried deeply, of the existence of these people. they just would have been living in a lush high altitude plateau in the warm subtropical zone and then are suddenly temperate zone. everything freezes in winter and nothing was prepared for it, except a few outliers and burrowing animals and many trees would not survive that transition very well. though, ok, a lot of things would make it.
point being that there probably was no food for some years while herds built back up and people got adapted to the new weather and adjusted their construction to adapt.
🤔 maybe Egypt is the place to be... Somehow, that civilation made it through like 20k years, which had innumerable catastrophes for the rest of the world.
the atlanteans moved there for the 12000 years ago event, and left around 5000 years ago. i explored a lightning map and it was interesting that the whole plateau under egypt has a very low lightning strike frequency. there's a few others, iirc mongolia doesn't get lightning strikes very often either.
also, the region near egypt in the mediterranean is where is expected to be the pivot point, 90 degrees between (notably, hawaii is near it). this is an area where ocean motion will be the lowest. the mediterranean is shallow compared to the atlantic.
How do you determine the pivot point?
Oh okay do you're saying Egypt and Hawaii are the poles around which the crust would move, because that axis is 90° off the magnetic poles. But the magnetic poles are moving, so how do you know where they'll be when it happens?
Hmm. AI thingy says the antipode of Hawaii is Botswana
yeah, but it's in the same region where the ocean motion will be less in the rotation
ok, it's quite a long way then. roughly the midpoint on one side of the two anomalies is around the mediterranean north of libya and egypt.
Yeah but I think that's still right, there should be a zone around the poles of the shift (if there are poles, cuz it might be too chaotic) where disruptions are less powerful.
