"Yea, but 22,000 years later the egyptian pharaohs built massive tombs idolizing themselves with slave labor"

And the evidence for the "slave labor" for the pyramids is....?

By the way, the largest and oldest pyramid contains no tomb and also has no Egyptian hierglyphics or writing in it, other than some graffiti that later fortune hunters left.

The oldest and largest pyramid in the world is in South America...the Chinese are disputing that assertion because they think they have one older...the jury is still out, South America or China, not Egypt.

The movie "Ten Commandments", starring my hero Charlton Heston.

If you refer to Nubian pyramids, in the "cradle of civilization", they were constructed at a much steeper angle than Egyptian ones and were not tombs, but monuments to dead kings. Hard to believe, but egyptians built memorials to themselves, Greeks and Romans built bathhouses and coliseums for the public.....cradle of civilization....bahhh.
