You know not of what you speak. The great pyramid in Egypt is an engineering marvel which we cannot duplicate to this day. The precision is incredible.

All you have to do is look at a few others they created to see how hard it is to build. The others are nothing more than a pile of rubble.

That was tongue in cheek, at least part of it. Yes the Great Pyramid is an engineering marvel though I disagree greatly that its beyond modern man. My real point is that Im surprised that all early groups of men didnt build pyramids of some type. The pyramid, the engineering difficulties of large ones aside, is an incredibly simple thing and one even children come to quickly when playing with blocks.
