How did they make the cuts and transport the rocks. Some of the cuts defy explanation.



no they don't.
How did they carve statues 2,500 years ago? Are all the statues from ancient Greece made by aliens?


You don't have to be a genius to understand the basics of physics. Like i said, my 4 year old son recognizes how to build a more stable structure by making a pyramid like structure with his blocks.

I helped build a log cabin from scratch. We didn't have a means to move the large logs that were sometimes a quarter mile away from our cabin site through the swamp. We simply used our brains and muscles efficiently. lift the big log up (sometimes using a lever to help), put some smaller logs under it, roll it across the smaller logs while taking the last log and bringing it to the front. We got 4 logs that weighed probably close to 1500lbs 15ft in the air using our muscles, levers, and blocks. We were as primitive as could be and rarely used modern tools for all of this. The only modern tool we used was a chainsaw, and nails and a hammer, if you want to call nails and hammer modern.

Like i tell my kid, which i stole from Stewie, "whether you think you can or can't, you're right"
You seem to think we can't.

Think about all of the things that ancient aliens could have given us. Blue jeans and tee shirts would have been nice, but no, they had to give us fricking pyramids.

There's a Youtube video of a guy who builds himself a small brick house using only his hands and rocks, wood, earth and water he finds around himself in the woods. He fashions a rock into an axe by chipping it and cuts down the trees and limbs he needs to build the house frame and start a fire. He digs a pit and using the dirt next to him and water from a creek nearby he fashions a kiln which he then bakes mud bricks in.

Just because people can't imagine how to do it themselves from their desks in air conditioned offices doesn't mean that someone with more natural know-how and imagination and the belief that it can be done can't do it.
