A quote from John Michael Greer during a recent exchange on his blog: 

>>>Muninn, that I know of, there’s no archeological evidence, and the clairvoyant evidence is sparse; it’s hard to filter it out from the traces left by later cycles of civilization. If I’m correct — and I’m going on scraps of psychically obtained data here, which is a very weak reed to lean on! — the Polarian cycle centered on Antarctica when that was ice free, and the Hyperborean centered on the Arctic Ocean, largely but not wholly on Greenland. 

>>>In both these cycles most of humanity remained hunter-gatherers, and the civilizations of both cycles were much less technological than ours — their primary accomplishments were spiritual and magical, though they did have urban centers and long-distance sailing vessels. As a rule, each cycle of civilization has a broader footprint on the material plane than the ones before it; it’s impossible for us even to imagine the material forms of the cycles still to come.
