I mean… we still don’t know how they did build the pyramids though. I mean the great pyramid of Giza mostly.
We have no records of it being build, and no archeological remains of tools or anything like it.
The closest we have are for the step pyramids and for reconstructions done millennium after.
The only thing we say with any certainty about it is that it was build by Kuffu, but that’s probably bullshit as that’s only based on a “graffiti” left in a random stone inside the pyramid.
Like the fact the great pyramid has no hieroglyphs is pretty weird in itself. Most other pyramids, specially later ones, were meticulously filled with hieroglyphs detailing the pharaoh’s reigns and the building of the pyramids or other monuments/great works…
We also don’t have evidence how they built a lot of the stone hinges that delivered around England. But there seems to be consensus that they won’t built by aliens.
We know they had ropes and pulleys in ancient Egypt at the time so it’s not that hard to understand how they were constructed.
There are millions of blocks of stone, weighting tonnes each, precisely cut and placed. You would have to place something like 30 blocks an hour, cut and shaped from quarries miles away, for 30 years straight without pauses.
And people don’t even think about the foundation stones that weight HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of tonnes. We, nowadays, with heavy machines and modern ropes and pulleys, can’t move stones anywhere close to those.
I agree they weren’t built by aliens. But comparing Stone Henge to the great pyramid is INSANE!
I’m not sure I’m with your maths there. There’s 2.3 million stones, divided by 30 years that’s 76,667 blocks a year, divided by 365 days that’s 210, so your 30 blocks an hour estimate is only a 7 hour working day.
The largest stones used in the construction are estimated at up to 80 tonnes, definitely not hundreds or thousands. There have been plenty of practical experiments with blocks that size using their known technology and it works fine, nevermind modern technology.

We know ropes and pulleys wouldn’t be enough lmao

It’s sandstone not granite, there’s no way that the ground stone weigh “thousands of tonnes”. Where are you getting your numbers from?
