07 Jul Alien and Kingdoms
research that addresses these questions:
- Based on current knowledge, what resources, tools, and skills did the Egyptians have?
- Do we understand the process of construction and why their laborers worked?
- What material evidence do we have today that best proves to us that ancient Egyptians (and not aliens) built the pyramids?
Note on the last question: Most of us agree that we have sufficient evidence to prove that humans (and not aliens) built these structures. Most of us, but not all. Yes, you know who you are. There are always students in my classes who are persuaded by the Ancient Alien documentaries, etc. To answer this question, you might pretend that you have a friend who deeply believes in one of the aliens-built-the-pyramids theories and convince him or her otherwise.
