Why are they lying to us about the pyramids?

Here we go guys..

Apparantly, the egyptions built the great pyramid of giza in 20 years. Thats over 2 million boulders mined and chiselled using basic copper tools, then moved into place without wheels, without precision tools and without lifting gear.

Not only that ladies and gentlemen, but they also quarried the land, created a base out of slabs weighing up to 7 tonnes, alligned it so it faces north, planned for and built around a precise inner labrynth and made the whole thing earthquake proof.

All in 20 years, What the funk.. im no builder, but even i know that this information is ridiculous, even more ridiculous than the alien theory.

Here we go guys:

Not really ridiculous when you have over 20,000 slaves doing it.

Either you're hartsickldisciple's alt or you're gonna be his best buddy on GS.

Fawk, beat me to it.

20 years, copper tools.GoodFight21

20 years is a long time, especially when you have tens of thousands of slaves

Pantheon > Colosseum > pyramids.

I have seen ancient aliens a few times and I'm not a conspiracy nut or anything, but it is perfectly plausible that aliens could of helped with the construction of the pyramids.

eh it's not that impressive anyway just a pile of stone

Considering that there is zero evidence of the existance of aliens no, it is not plausable in the least.

How are we ever going to get anywhere? Light speed travel, worm holes, mass effect relays... who knows.

Watch Ancient Aliens. There is evidence that they bring up on the show. Im not saying it is true but it is plausible. There is definatly more evidence for ancient aliens than there is for god. Cave paintings of men in what looks like an astronaut suit. Paintings that look like ships. The fact that the mayans also built pyramids and they lived on the other side of the world. There is even what appears to be a UFO in the bible.

It doesn't take a builder to know that none of this makes sense.GoodFight21

How do stone masons work today?

20 years and thousands of slaves. You could do a lot with numbers like that. And they weren't stupid, they actually had stuff like ramps (which the pyramids are conveniently shaped to accomadate to,) and rafts/barges for transporting minerals down the Nile, you know, the big river.

I blame america.

and please don't say "Because they didnt trust humans with technology blah blah primitive race blah blah" this isn't star trek.

Most likely they had some knowledge that was lost and that we, shocking, don't possess.

Now I'm no cosmetologist, but it was definitely aliens.

I dont think it was aliens, these people were obviously more advanced than we are lead to believe. The inner chamber for example, is made up of blocks weighing around 50 tonnes each, fitted with precision, without precision tools. GoodFight21

They used the Nile to transport the 7 ton slabs to the location. They weren't engineering idiots either. They could align the pyramid to the stars. Not **** the pyramid is earthquake proof, its like a damn mountain.

EDIT - Whats insane is Machu Pichu. The damn thing is like 8000 ft above sea level and it was built like a modern metropolis. The

Considering we can actually trace the evolution of building pyramids as well as see the changes in the angles at which they were built, I can say the alien theory doesn't add up. The aliens sure did a terrible job building the Bent and Meidum Pyramids.
