I have to disagree with you there. There is no known method demonstrated in modern times to account for moving 1000 ton blocks (Baalbek), or the precise and bizarre formations hewn into andesite in the Peruvian Andes, or quarrying/shaping/transporting/lifting/positioning the 80 ton granite slabs in G1's relieving chambers, or anything that approaches the massive allegedly 200 year construction project to erect all of those pyramids.
