World's largest 3D printer?
Humans were giants back then so they were physically stronger.
This explains why there are so many art drawn of giant slaves, ancient sculptures, long graves and so on around the world.
No, the people who control what goes on at Giza regarding work have no interest in invasive measures to find out. Yes, this is weird, no it doesn't make any sense...yes there are reasons why they have no interest in this.So have we figured out what is in that new giant open space they just discovered..?
There is actually no evidence anywhere at any of the roughly 80 pyramids in Egypt of a burial contemporary to the building of each building. The Great Pyramid, to pre-empt grave robber talk, was completely sealed until the 1200's.Pyramid after pyramid shows that artisan guilds built the pyramids. They sign their names on stones, and the like. Many were buried near or below the pyramids, or in the surrounding necropolis.
36 feet in height? I don't believe it. Even 20 feet in height is way to much for most land animals. Giraffes usually top off at around 5-6 meters tops, which is between 16-20 feet.

LMFAO
I never said why don’t modern people build pyramids, I said why didn’t the people who built them (aka apparently the 4th dynasty Egyptians) build anything else on that scale?
Stone fortifications are far more common structures in pre modern times than giant pyramids, and for good reason. A society which has farming, not even bronze age level metallurgy, bows/chariot level war gear and great pyramids is not a balanced society, it was absurd of them to spend the man hours (and resources) building a structure like the great pyramid without inventing even rudimentary Stone fortifications.
Although again the evidence connecting the great pyramid to the 4th dynasty is minimal at best.
I bet if they made a pyramid in Nevada or somewhere where they could, that was going to be two times the size of the ones in Giza.
I bet it would be a tourist attraction and major headline news.
These structures were ordered built by the gods on Earth of that society as a symbol of their greatness. They could afford to pay laborers decent wages to build these things.
It's silly to suggest that they need advanced metallurgy skills to build a large stone fortification. The skill necessary to design and build a pyramid is nothing. It's labor intensive, but their society was clearly able to handle the demands of having those men move stone.
You're really putting too much into a fucking pile of rocks.
I'll bet if they made a giant pyramid in Nevada absolutely nobody would go see it. If it doesn't have WiFi and 4 star bar, nobody gives a shit.

I said "contempory" burials (ie, when it was built, not after by thousands of years).
