Settler
Joe, please reload your T2440 save you posted earlier (everything was fine until that point) but the T50 save already looks much less promising. Please don't play until you got serious advice. This is not about rushing, this is about learning the basics of the game.
The problems with your last save: as you can see your second city is working unimproved tiles which is unnecessary as you had a worker there in the previous save. The monument is still not done even though it should have been chopped and whipped at the moment Mysticism was in. You whipped away 2 high hammer tiles in your cap which isn't optimal (significant hammer loss compared to a whip without a granary). There are also two redundant roads in your game. (Quiz question: which ones?)
So reaload the 2440 BC save and do this:
1. Let your second city work the pig. (Open the city screen and click on the greyed out pig tile. The pig will now be visible. Click on it again to start working that tile (the white circle will now move to the pig).)
2. Keep teching Mysticism and try to time the chop in the second city so that it can immediately go into the monument.
3. Keep building the settler in the cap normally on the food and the three high hammer tiles.
Stop as soon as the monument is chopped. Don't play on, please.
