Ancient Civilizations May Have Run on Plasma Energy

Fossil fuels are not the inevitable foundation of advanced civilization - they are simply the one our current order chose to build on. Randall’s argument begins there, with the observation that other energy regimes are not only theoretically possible but may have already been used by orders of civilization that preceded ours. That is not a claim he makes with certainty. He is deliberate about that qualification - the proof isn't there yet. However, the circumstantial evidence, he argues, is substantial enough to take seriously.

Where Randall’s conjecture lands is plasma - specifically, plasma understood as the fourth state of matter and as a potential energy foundation for a lost civilization. The framework connects directly to his broader research into plasma-based physics and its appearance across ancient traditions and anomalous archaeological sites. If an earlier order of humanity had identified and utilized plasma as its primary energy regime, the physical and symbolic fingerprints of that choice may still be visible - in the architecture, the geometry, and the knowledge systems that survived the catastrophe that ended it.
