There is nothing left from before Noah's Flood of 4,300 years ago so there is an error in dating anything before that.

There's a lot left from before that mythical flood, dearie. All the civilizations that were going on, doing just fine, throughout that time, not noticing any world-wide flood, might have quite a lot left from before.
There is no evidence of a world-wide flood at any time in the history of Earth (not after land emerged in the first place) to my knowledge.
There are lots and lots of local floodings, though, all over the world, throughout human history. Right now, it's in Mozambique, and neighboring countries. They probably see it as world-wide, as it covers THEIR whole "world".

'Nothing ', you say? Survivalist Bear Grylls suggests otherwise:

In an episode of his TV series: in the Sierra Nevada, whilst sheltering in a cave & drawing on one of the surfaces with charcoal from a fire he made, he states that Cave Painting is the earliest form of artistic expression by humans: and some have been tested & dated to 40,000 years old.
This former SAS reservist & Chief Scout is a Christian .
When even he can reconcile his faith with proven scientific facts, it's not only you who is in error, cmg.
Even if there had been a huge flood, it would have been a flood of water from rain and not a total atomic annihilation. Sure, floods do terrible damage to structures and larger plants, but a flood doesn't reduce all matter to subatomic waste. How on earth did the dove come back to the arc with an olive branch if everything had been totally destroyed?
There is nothing left of Noah's flood, either, like no evidence in the geological strata, nor any records of it from civilizations which existed prior and which we have evidence of.

And not only that, what was Moses supposed to do with all those herbivore animals while he waited for new vegetation to grow? And in a similar vein, what did he do with all the carnivores while they waited for the herbivores to reproduce?
Nothing left?

Old Tjikko, the world’s oldest known living tree sprouted sometime during the last Ice Age, roughly 9,550 years ago, a 16-foot spruce in the Dalarna province of Sweden.
“And not only that, what was Moses”
“supposed to do with all those herbivore animals while he waited for new vegetation to grow?”
"And in a similar vein, what did he do with all the carnivores while they waited for the herbivores to reproduce?”
“There is nothing left from before Noah's Flood”
Confused?
