Do you really believe ancient egyptians built these pyramids

[@My_nameaintearl]

The 3 ''main'' pyramids were built in perfect alignment with Orion's Belt,

Actually, they're not. The pic that floats around on the internet has the pyramids' arrangement flipped north-southwise so that they almost line up similar to Orion's Belt, which basically just means they're almost in a straight line.

We shouldn't forget that mayans and aztecs built monuments perfectly aligned with Orion's belt as well,

No, they didn't.

How did the dogon tribe of africa know about Sirius when no human at the time couldve seen it since it's so far?

It's the brightest star in the night sky. You can see it every night just by looking up.

Why do people just repeat stupid shit they heard without putting an ounce of thought into it?

smh at some ppl in this thread hating on white ppl because "some" white ppl said aliens or whoever built them pyramids

i dont know who really built them i havent been there at that time

how many of yall allknowing muhfucks have actually seen the pyramids with they own eyes?

maybe none

or maybe some of them have seen a few

how would i know

 

[Conscious__Nkechi]

basically the more advanced technology becomes, the dumber the average person will become
the fact that they were able to construct these structures without modern cranes and excavators is amazing. note the pinpoint accuracy in the architecture

modern society depends on technology too much...take away someone's iPhone/computer, and they are fucking lost

watch documentary "Transcendant Man" shit will blow your mind once you understand where technology is ultimately going

Was just discussing this piece of truth offline.
Some call it "progression", I call most of it sheer laziness. Change doesn't necessarily mean it's for the better.

You not building anything worthy with slaves. You need mind control and a lot of passion. Slaves do things half heartily because they do not want to do anything.

 

[#1 pick]

Ancient Egyptians yes, with the help of passed down knowledge (sacred geometry) from a out side force.

This, I know where you got this info from. Don't say too much.

 

[#1 pick]

It's more possible that aliens did it than a black man cause you seen how waka flocka and gucci mane talk smh, they couldn't even build a stick man let alone a pryamid. Unless, the so called original black man was 2 billion times smarter than what he is today, than it has to be aliens.

Gucci Mane was a honor student in HS and Waka made straight A's in Riverdale. These guys are entertainers like professional wrestlers. It's not real thought it can get real.

That's like asking "If Al Capone was such a great gangster, how come he didn't have any AK-47's?"

remember the sky 5000 years ago does not look like the sky today. The Earth wobbles as it rotates and the North Pole switches every few hundred years or so (maybe a thousand Im not sure).

BUt it doesnt spin perfectly. I watched a documentary about how the Pyramid opening lined up with some star and the tip lined up with another star but I forgot what they're called.

but do they line up today? No. Because that was 5000 years ago.

So the documentary was wrong? Im not saying it isnt Im really asking :shrug

them black folks were smart, not to mention they weren't slaves but ppl who worked to make their Pharoah's resting place a palace

underrated fucking post, niggas are so blind to what's in front of them. Forget about all that black Afircan nonsense, lets use sheer logic for a second

We are talking talking:

complex geometry

physics

advance astronomy

etc

 

[@My_nameaintearl]

Pyramids are not complex geometric shapes and neither are any of the features of the Giza pyramids.

Physics? I mean, I guess gravity is holding them down.

Advance astronomy? Where? Advanced astronomy is what we do today with the Hubble telescope, peering deep into space and finding galaxies we've never seen before. All the Egyptians could do was look up and say "Well if you squint, those five stars kinda look like a snake."

You not building anything worthy with slaves. You need mind control and a lot of passion. Slaves do things half heartily because they do not want to do anything.

I said they were constructed with skilled laborers. The slaves did quarry and move the materials, though. As for mind control, again, every single person in Egypt was considered the property of the pharaoh. Basically, everybody was a slave. They just weren't all treated as badly. If you chose not to obey the authorities, you would be put to death.

Great society. Very advanced.

no physics besides the use of levers and other simple machines that were in common use at the time.

the geometry isn't really all that complex to make a pyramid. it's one of the first shapes we all learned as a child and these were people who had been masons for thousands of years. they knew how to cut blocks.

The astronomy is more complex than the average person knows today but keep in mind that "college" in Ancient KMT was a 40 year program. They knew about astronomy. lining up things to point at certain stars on certain days isn't that complicated.

As I said before, there's no evidence that slave labor was used or needed. There was no huge slave labor pool in Egypt at that time. The Israelites didn't even arrive there until much, much later in history and Nubians and Assyrians are depicted differently in hieroglyphs than Egyptians.

You would rather believe aliens built the pyramids than just some smart people? I can assure you if you did any kind of real research on this you would know how silly that sounds.

 

[@My_nameaintearl]

Nobody said the Israelites were the slaves used. Egypt had a steady supply of slave labor from skirmishes with its neighbors. Combine this with the fact that every citizen was property of the pharaoh and all of the seasonal farm labor is ready-made slave labor.

I mentioned before that it could be argued that the citizens could be considered slaves to Pharaoh but you could make that same argument about many different religions, governments or economic systems (including our own). There really is no evidence of a large slave population in Egypt at any time and little to no evidence of slaves being used to build the Pyramids.

Also, without some type of huge weaponry advantage (like rifles) it just wouldn't be possible to organize 30,000 slaves at a time to do any one thing in one place at one time besides kick your ass.

Keep in mind that for a quarter of the year the majority of the egyptian population had nothing to do as they were farmers. Also, geological and tax records on papyri of the time (there's a lot of those) prove that during the 4th Dynasty the crops were especially plentiful. That means not only were the people happy in general but the farmers were pretty wealthy in grain and also it means that during Inundation the Nile was flooding quite a bit.

Like I've said repeatedly, slaves were used to quarry the rock and move it, not to actually construct the pyramids.

It was a strict caste system with no social mobility. The Egyptians were a cruel and unethical people.

How were the Egyptians any more cruel and unethical than The Romans, The Spanish, Isreal, the U.S.A, Saudi Arabia, The Mayans, Aztecs, Germans, Japanese or just about any other large society? I could see you mentioning this in terms of people looking at them as some kind of Utopian ideal but I don't think that's the case here.

As far as a caste system there was definitely a social order but I wouldn't call it a "strict" caste system - it just so happened that occupations, wealth, land and the status associated with them were typically passed down throughout families. There are cases of slaves (even Nubians) becoming viziers and women, priests and generals becoming Pharaohs. These things didn't happen often but they did happen. Certainly there was a pecking order but again, how is that so different that what we see even in large modern societies (including our own)?
