If you study through geology and other sciences what has happened over time to earth you could envision how events overtook various civilizations. And interesting case in itself is "What happened to the Mayans?" one day they were there and then they were gone.
Could a drought combined with a plague or pandemic have wiped them out? Did they all escape to the jungle areas nearby? What happened to them?
Civilizations come and go as time goes by. Even here in California if you have studied the Great Flood of 1862 and knowing that this type of flood has happened every 100 to 200 years you could imagine for example a culture like from Japan or China or even New Zealand or Hawaii coming and starting a city or town or village here and 100 to 200 years later that place being completely wiped out in the periodic deluges that happen here (the last one was 1862).
