Or it could have been an ancient but advanced human civilization, like what has occurred in the last century, when human tribes see modern technology.

What about human time travel, which sent modern day humans into the past?

Eh, I ended up choosing the 'possibly' option, because you can't really say a definite yes or no for various reasons.

I have to agree with the option. It is possible, but is there really any undisputed evidence either way?

The best example that was given, I think, were the cargo cults. Where modern technology, which allows us to fly in airplanes, is interpreted as being from their gods. So, in that way, it's plausible to think that the origin of (some) gods can come from anyone or anything technologically advanced enough to appear to have come from the sky. You know, in the same way as how people who make great accomplishments are revered, sometimes to the extent of being deified.

Hm, well, you've got a point there, I guess. That also reminds me of some of the little story that was in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. XD And, well, I'm still keeping my stance on 'it's possible'...so, yeah...

Same here, but I wouldn't mind option four, either. Mathematics and science, in ancient Greece, were advancing faster than they could be put to practical use. They were practically on the precipice of an industrial revolution, with steam power.

And sometimes it's amazing what some of those ancient civilizations were able to put together and manage.

Yup. Plenty of things are mysteries, or are so daunting that undertaking the same thing with modern technology would be so hard as to not be considered as a sane venture. You get a lot of, "how in the world did they do that!?"

Like the pyramids, stone temples on top of mountains several hundred miles away from where the stone was taken, Stonehenge (whatever that is)... Heck, even Easter Island.

Maybe humans had psychic powers. Mind over matter. *_*
