Thats true except that those who claim to know cant do it either. They can not replicate any of the cutting or drilling using tools known to have been in possession of the Egyptians. Those who have tried have all failed quite miserably including a few who later claimed victory.

Like craftsmen for millenia the ancients learned how to do this from someone who had done it for a lifetime. It took decades of work and practice to become a master. We could replicate this if we put in that kind of time and learning.

Exactly!
I get really tired of people who don’t give ancient people the credit they deserve. Claiming the “ancient wonder” or “activity” was done by aliens or something else nonhuman is an insult to the ingenuity of the human race be they ancient or not!
