Like the title says.
Why does people still go around asking how they possibly were build, like it’s so complex?
I don’t see why it’s so impressive. Yes it’s heavy stones, but it’s it really that complex?

Cutting giant granite blocks using primitive but clever tools is impressive. Like what did they use to cut with? You know if you look at where granite is on the Mohs scale.
They even seemed to be able to make round jars in granite. Like almost mass produce them. Did they have some sort of diamond tipped lathe? Diamond infused snd from meteor craters that theyfigured out ”Hey this shit rubs away stone REALLY well!”
Ant the core drilling they somehow did. Also seemed to be able to saw granite.

If you carve rock then you really start to be impressed by their work. Some stuff you would struggle doing with modern tools.
Today we also lift stuff straight up with cranes. But if all you got is logs, ropes and a bunch of hands then you really have to be clever using balance, wedges, leverage, rotation and such to waggle that block. Much like moving a fridge singlehandedly. You kinda have to ”walk” it along by using pivot points and leverage
You don’t need aliens to be impressed by it. But you need some technical knowhow to be impressed.
Otherwise you are just an ignorant dumbfuck who shrugs at everything ”It’s just big rocks, like what’s so impressive about that?” Idk maybe go to Disneyland instead?
