The Laytami Loop Theory is a concept that was developed during the Fourth Age. It is frequently credited to Herbet Patric Galactis, but he had no part in it. According to Herbert "the whole thing originated from some throw-away line in one of my books, some comment about how Laytami seemed precient, as if he'd been there before."
The theory postulated that the mysterious Gudersnipe Army, which appeared suddenly and was the start of the Second Chaotic Period, had actually traveled back in time. According to the theory, all of history from that point forward until some date in the distant future, is a loop. Laytami Gudersnipe himself is theorized to be tens of thousands of years old, and, by virtue of having completed the loop so many times, has lived longer than time.
Evidence
Loop theorists have very little solid evidence. The Foundation has always been closed about the origin of the Gudersnipe Army and has never made any firm statements as to it's origin. What IS known is that they controlled extremely massive spacecraft, larger than modern Mercury Ships. The existence of ships like the G.S.S. Geomancer, and the top-secret but well-known Motherships lend credence to the old stories.
