Ok, here's another thing. Did the Egyptians just come up with these engineering feats of wonder all in one go? Where did they practice all these techniques first then?. Shouldn't Egypt be scattered with pyramids that collapsed because the chief engineer made a boo-boo?

In the last 1000 years we have gone from castles and wooden huts to skyscrapers and brick houses, hardly a major leap. Are we saying that the Egyptians in a thousand years went from mud-huts to pyramids ?(4000 bc).

Why is it that the lines that were cut for the blocks only deviate 0.5 of a millimetre from start to finish whereas Nasa have a laser guided cutter which deviates 0.11 of a millimeter. How did they get those lines so precise using stone and wooden impliments. (I think those figures are precise, I need to find the link).

I am just bothered by the time factor in all this, I just don't think that the Pyramids are as young as we believe. Even using ramps, pullies, Ice as a surface for sliding blocks being pulled by elephants etc, it just doesn't add up.

I need to find the link to some research performed by a mathematician who calculated the quantity, weight and size of the blocks in the Great Pyramid, and showed that each block would have had to be placed perfectly in position every 30 minutes or so to have been completed in the time span that the historians have quoted.

I will try to find the url's as I may be slightly off on some of the exact figures.
