The silurian hypothesis is about another smart civilization on earth. the crust surface under the sea is tectonically recycles more often then land crust cetaceans as whole returned to the ocean somewhere like 50 million years ago So there we have it. It’s a bunch of species of futuristic super smart water mammals or whatever they evolved into.

Whales don’t have hands. I feel that octopuses are more likely; they are already aliens.

The idea presented here is that what we currently see in the ocean is like seeing a primate in the jungle. That idea would not be a representation of humans too well, and whales would not be a good representation of what is being talked about here
