1. You just saw what last n ight on TV?
2. What is the new evidence?
3. I mean throw us a bone man! Which TV channel, in which country, showing a program called what exactly?
Who is claiming it was done with primitive tools? I'm not. Egyptologists are not. Do you think rollers are primitive? Do you understand the the amount of research and testing that would have gone into choosing the right size of roller? The care that would be taken in quality control to ensure the robustness of each roller met requirements? The project management techniques to ensure the right rollers on hand, for the appropriate workmen, when particular blocks were ready to move!
Please tell me where the primitive is?
the biggest stones were moved 10 miles each
That explains it. The History Channel has been into pimping nonsense for quite some time now. Real history apparently doesn't garner nearly as many viewers as does made-up history. *Insight* I suddenly understand why National Inquirer now looks so boring when I glance at it at the checkout counter. All the good creative writers went over to the History Channel.It is on history there is 5 new 2 hour episodes
I went to the quarry in Aswan, Egypt, where they quarried material for building, notably granite.
You should go, and see how they quarried these stones, and it becomes obvious it was labour intensive job, performed with basic tools. The 'unfinished obelisk' being a perfect demonstration.
As to your claims about the perfection of the sides of the sarcophagus in the Great Pyramid? No. Sorry, but I've seen it, it's not that smooth, they lied to you.
Hmm, I make Aswan to Saqqara about 440 miles as the crow flies. Now, having been on a Nile cruise, I know the Nile isn't a straight line.
If they told you that quarried stones had only been moved ten miles, again, they lied to you.

Please learn to read (and write, while you are at it). Phlog was talking about the granite sarcophagus in the King's Chamber of the Great Pyramid - exactly the same item you were talking about. I too have seen it - several times, as it happens. I echo Phlog's remarks about its smoothness.2 different areas the 3 1000ton blocks arnt in the great prymids.
again talking about a chest inside them not the outsides prymids wherent made out of granite like the chest was so.. talking about 2 different things but good day
I don't know why you think so little of your species to do something beyond our comprehension. we can't do grand things anymore because there is no motivation to work together anymore, yea, a lot of the motivation was slavery and death but it did make a creative and imaginative force that probably wont ever be duplicated.

Neither was I. I was talking about granite quarried at Aswan, being transported over 440 miles to Saqqara. You seem to think moving granite 10 miles impressive.
Me too, I have been inside the Great Pyramid, and see the sarcophagus for myself, and it wasn't that smooth. Do you understand, that I have actually seen the item? Myself, for real. Touched it. Peered inside it. It isn't as smooth as that TV program claims. They lied to you, and you bought it.
Go to Egypt, and discover the rest of their lies and deceptions for yourself, and stop embarrassing yourself here.

enlighten us then pleas using nothing but tools avaliable at the time move a 2,000,000lb block 10 miles ya thats ez even today its ez using 25 of our superheavy duty lifts..
ok so that one is debunked altho id like to see it myself and how would i have any other reason not to believe thast how smooth it was having never been there? and how do you know it wasnt that smooth unless you had your own tools?
but explain to me puma punku?
Lots of people, using ropes, and rollers, and taking a lot of time to do it. Pharoahs commissioned these great works decades in advance, see. Lots of people, multiplied by lots of time= great works. Simple.
Well, you could have asked those of us that have been there if we agreed with the statements made by the TV program, rather than telling us something we knew wasn't true.
On tools, you don't need tools to discern how smooth it was, you just needed to run your fingers over it.
I've never been, and I prefer to speak from experience.
