Time to pollute the earth and atmosphere again I guess. Mining is an environmental disaster.

Also, in this manga, it always bothered me that nothing remains of the previous civilization after only 3700 years. The pyramids lasted longer than that. And Japan made buildings and other things that should have lasted a lot longer than 3700 years.

It should have set a longer time than that as a premise.

Well, pyramids are actually little mountains, they can't really crumble and it's in a desert, so there's no vegetation to help destroy everything. Sand erosion would be a problem, but again, the pyramids are just solid, so it would take hundreds of thousands of years for those to disappear. There's also the fact that Egypt was never uninhabited, just people going to and from the pyramid would help keeps the surroundings level.

I wonder how many earthquakes and tsunamis happened in 3700 years, it's in Japan after all, and around 1500 earthquake happen there yearly.
Just check this out:

That's Hiroshima after the nuclear bombing...
Now imagine what would be left after 5,550,000 earthquakes.

@aFFi I'd remind you that they actually find... a lot of petrified people. How come those people are impervious to your so-called earthquakes? If you are right and everything was destroyed by earthquakes and vegetation, then those people should be rubble at this point.

This just not works. They should also find a lot of remnants of civilization.

Well, there's a bit of magic involved, but there's a ton of people that were completely broken.
Here's some of the destruction to the cities we see in chapter 1:

You can see a lot of people getting destroyed.
Here's more of that also from chapter 1:

There's bits and pieces of "statues" everywhere...

Also, a lot of the survivors were below ground, they got preserved because dirt covered them, ultimately protecting them from destruction, as seen here with Taiju from chapter 14:

So yeah, a lot of people are dead forever because of accidents during petrification and then because of the weather, natural disasters and time.

Traces of our civilisation would be destroyed, buried or decomposed. Maybe if they start digging, they would find things like concrete or some metal that wouldn't have completely rusted away, but that wouldn't really be a good use of their time.

Pretty odd that they have had absolutely zero issues with wildlife except for the lion at the beginning. After 3700 years the ecosystem should be way out of wack. Disease should also be another issue.
