Could be. It makes sense.

What would be fun to watch is a new pyramid being built by modern methods. Included are the chambers.

And they would have to use the same resources, (mud, straw) as the old pyramids.

“If not aliens, then who?”

Giants, of course, everybody knows that! Besides which everybody knows that the ancient Egyptians had advanced technology that far outstrips are own. Why we are mere pikers compared to what they could do, and we couldn’t even begin to build the pyramids with our limited engineering and science, or so we are told.

(I hope I don’t have to tell you I am being sarcastic.)

How about with a very large 3D printer?

New finds seem to imply they had iron tools as well as copper. That and organizational skills. Religious zeal could be a factor as well. Didn’t use slaves—paid workers. For labor on the project they got Meat to eat and all the beer they wanted, tax relief and—the big kicker—eternal life in the world to come. Both men and women were used to keep this thing going. They had a sort of Pizza (sans Tomato Sauce) with cheese, onions, meat. The crew also got the best medical care in the ancient world! There was an unintended benefits. By accident they invented nationalism. The workers started to see themselves as Egyptians rather than members of a village.

So evolutionists think we know everything about history and the development of man from monkey but we can’t even understand pyramids?

I’ve always said that the inside is like a honeycomb...that would permit simple leverage. We see what we see....It’s what we don’t see that is the key.

Was not the Egyptians. The pyramids and Sphinx are probably 40,000 years old. The megalithic stones were most likely built and moved by an earlier civilization.

Pyramids were built as a giant energy source. Like a huge battery ....

Just go to youtube and search megalithic structures and you’ll be convinced....

Math says they would have had to lay one of these multi-ton blocks every 5 minutes, 24/hrs a day.

Don’t forget that means they had to cut one every 5 minutes.

2.5 million of them, in the correct order too.

The Egyptian authorities need to allow more research,
Zahi Hawass pretty much kept it all under wraps.

New finds seem to imply they had iron tools as well as copper.

As a blacksmith, it’s my theory that they knew how to
make copper tools that were much longer wearing and harder
than as surmised. Iron oxides can be considerably harder
than pure copper, up to 3 times the Mohs number.
Remember it is what these people worked with every day
and so a tool maker could have realized this and put it
to good use.

A tool maker who could make a tool that would last twice
or three times as long and cut better would have been
rewarded for it.

Aliens did it. With space ships ‘n’ stuff. It’s true. That kid with the funny hairdo on The History Channel said so.
