How long do the traces of a civilization last? A thousand years? A hundred thousand? A million? And if they vanish completely —does that mean the civilization never existed? We assume we would know if advanced societies had preceded us on Earth. We assume the geological record would preserve their footprint. We assume that silence from the deep past means emptiness. But these assumptions have never been tested with mathematical rigor—until now.
