The relics in the dig show the earlier society when humans were dominant and more advanced
Why would an ape make a human doll that talks
Dr Zeus had been as far out as the statue
He could see it was a human face
Which gave some hint at what New York was and how far advanced they really were
He warned Taylor about what he would find
Zeus thinks Taylor is from a tribe of mutants, probably similar to the ones the do find below the city on film two
He doesn't believe the space travel story
He knows when Taylor finds the statue he will know that the great human society destroyed itself
As the scroll warns He will make a desert of his world and yours
And he did

For those who never read the book, which is pretty much anyone who has ever been on here, this is closer to the book ending Notwithstanding the frame story with the two "people" who turned out to be apes reading the manuscript of course The book is in French and this is set in France not America The astronaut, who actually is a lot like Taylor, flies his ship, with his wife and child back from ape planet to what he thinks is his own world Think start of the third Roddy McDowell film Escape From The Planet Of The Apes when they arrive in the ship in 1970s A jeep drives up he sees the officer driving is an ape So yes they finally made a monkey out of him
-------------------------
The original book by Pierre Boule is La Planète des singes, published in English as Planet of the Apes in the U.S. Monkey Planet in the UK Ulysse is the name of the astronaut, who Taylor is based on Nova is the human female he mates and has a son with, and they fly back to Earth in his ship They land by the Eiffel Tower look the same a jeep pulls up and the officer driving is a gorilla Ulysse and Nova take off in their ship, leaving Earth behind
-----------------------------
For those claiming to have read the book By Pierre Boule It is in French Set in France and they end up in Paris On the ape world they do not speak French He has to learn the ape language to talk to them You need to either claim to speak French or claim to have an English translation Otherwise you are embarrassing yourself talking about the book When all you are doing is prove you haven't read it
---------------------------
Most people have never read the book A percentage of those people say they have Like the people who have never read Dracula and do the "Alucard" bit to make it seems like they have Which proves they haven't
There is a "thing" where idiots would say "in the book he calls himself Alucard, which is Dracula spelt backwards" this is not in the book it was invented as a way to catch out people who claim to have read the book but haven't
