The evidence shows in the fact that there is mention of Shantotto on the relic reborn quest for blm, Raubahn in the immortal flames(he was an immortal in XI, so it could be the same guy. Also he has a sword called Tizona, which was the mythic weapon for blue mage in XI), and Mnejing in the goldsmith quest. Also I believe the goobue mount npc talked about vanadiel.
I have been thinking this ever since I started the game! It really does feel like it could be the same world, just many many years in the future. Maybe more than 100, maybe even 1,000 or 10,000.
