It's amazing how the ancient Egyptians were able to do that much without the use of power tools and equipment.

How do you fashion that monstrosity out of a rock - and how do you move them?

The one in Washington - how was it moved there?

If you study National building structures and monuments in USA everywell they copied those structures mainly from ancient empires like Egypt, Greece, Babylon, Persia, Roman.

Another question:

How did they raise this gigantic obelisks that was carved straight outta rock to stand erect?

If it was today, engineers would have set up some scaffolds - our dear obelisk would be cast-in-sutu.
Egypt was technologically ahead of many at that time. A lot of scientific research were based off past works from Eygpt and some other European countries like Greece and Roman Empire.

Are there evidences pointing to that effect?

Me I kinda feel they were a breed of giants or something.

Characters in the form of Jonathan Swift's famed Gulliver.

Men my size cannot easily chisel their way through that thing with crude smooth rocks while maintaining so much precision .

A thousand men like you as slaves can do better beyond your imagination.

1000 people cannot lift up this obelisk, wow what a world several years ago

They had millions of slaves at their disposal to do their bidding. Let's not forget they were also the world power of their time and they had no Geneva convention to contend with cheesy

I reckon this is about the same period the Israelites were enslaved by the Egyptians

Wonder what happened to the ancients, they must have acquired diamond cutting tools and others. Maybe some fast spreading disease wiped them off or warfare, who knows.

we have more access to resources and tech no. Some of those pyramids took 20 years to build. Like wtf
And you think 20 years is big in today's engineering How many years did it take to build the shangait underwater tunnel and the road that led to the airport with constant work including night? How many years did it take to reach the level of the sculpture at mount Rushmore with out tech? You know you are better than them? If they have our tech imagine what they will do

That’s probably how they built the pyramids too. But you see people killing themselves to figure out how it was done. I am sure ancient Egyptians will have a great laugh at our theories.
