Mud Flood
Also called: Mudflood · Mud Flood Theory
A term for basement floors in 19th-century cities that look half buried.In this narrative it is a global catastrophe that swallowed an entire ancient civilization.
Established facts
Many buildings in old cities have ground-floor windows sitting below street level.After the Great Fire of 1889, Seattle repaved its streets one story higher.The old ground floors remained in place and became the underground passages known as Seattle Underground.Chicago, in the 1850s and 60s, raised entire downtown buildings to solve a drainage problem.Engineer Ellis Chesbrough led that project.A semi-underground structure is also just a common design called an 'English basement.' Geology has never confirmed a global mud catastrophe.
Buried windows read as proof that an old civilization was swallowed.
In this narrativeA buried city
The mud flood is a global catastrophe claimed to have happened in the 1800s1.Massive mud is said to have covered the ground several meters deep within a few years1.Before that, there was a splendid civilization called Tartaria1.Archways descending below street level and buried windows are its traces1.Ground-floor front doors became, unchanged, basement doors1.Survivors are said to have built a new city on top of it1.
In this narrativeWorld's fairs and great fires
The 1893 Chicago World's Fair raised huge buildings in just months1.Once the fair ended, those buildings were torn down right away1.In this narrative they were not newly built but dug up1.Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, and Toronto were struck by great fires one after another2.The fires always burned government buildings and old records together2.So fire, too, is pointed to as a tool for erasing traces2.
In this narrativeThose who erased it
In this narrative a hidden elite stands behind the catastrophe1.It says war and education reform rewrote the old history1.Orphan trains and orphanages suddenly increased during that period2.Census records from that time are also unusually sparse2.This is read as a trace of an effort to reorganize the surviving population2.
In this narrativeThe rebuttal in Korean sources
Three Korean blog posts present this theory alongside its rebuttal1.Low windows are the result of streets rising over long years2.There is also the rebuttal that this is simply the 'English basement' design, meant for drainage and light2.It also states there is no geological evidence to support a mud flood3.Even so, all three posts introduce the theory's framework in detail1.

Connected concepts
- Tartaria →The civilization the mud flood buried is Tartaria.The catastrophe story's protagonist comes from there.
- World's Fairs →World's fair grounds are used as photographic evidence of the catastrophe.The dug-up buildings were briefly put on display.
- Reset Theory →The mud flood is read as the single event that triggered a civilizational reset.Name the catastrophe and it becomes reset theory.
- Free Energy →The technology the buried buildings used was free energy.The catastrophe is held to have buried the technology along with everything else.
