I don't know whether Jenomis is (unconsciously) blaming the calamities on Eorzeans in general (with good cause, I think), or he somehow thinks a calamity that is "of" Eorzea can also hypothetically cause the Golmore Jungle to grow. (I know he's not claiming that the calamities are definitely the cause, but he does bring it up as a possibility.)

It's just that if Jenomis called the Umbral Calamities "your calamities", what does he call the effects those calamities have had on Othard and Ilsabard?
You mean since Jenomis is from Ilsabard, he doesn't really differ between the 6 calamities that ended Eorzean eras and calamities on Eorzea or Othard in general?
Yeah could be right actually. Also is was just his assumption. He could be wrong and the jungle just growth without a connection to any calamity.

The main struggle in my opinion is that Dalmasca is stated to be at least 1000 years old (and of course there has to be some time between Dalmasca and Ivalice), but all we get to know about the age of Ivalice and the Durai Papers is this "At least 1000 years ago" aswell, when is has in fact to be much older than that.

It could be a mistranslation or a plot hole or Jenomis just doesn't exactly know how old the Durai Papers are.

I don't state it's impossible to locate Ivalice within the 5th era. It is absolutely possible and I would actually love it to be stated there. There is just this one missing trace to be 100% sure about it.
